520 | _aThe World War II air war in the Pacific needed tough men like Colonel Pappy Boyington and his Black Sheep Squadron. The legendary Marine Corps officer and his bunch of misfits, outcasts, and daredevils gave new definition to “hell-raising”—on the ground and in the skies.

He broke every rule in the book doing so, but when he fell into the hands of the vengeful Japanese his real ordeal began. | ||
