After an exhausting session with Victoria's Secret Police, Guy Alcala
blurted out:

I've just retrieved a copy of Roger Freeman's "Mighty Eighth
War Manual," which...


...is a great resource. Couple years ago down at the Archives at
Maxwell, I heard a resident PhD War College staffer discuss Freeman's
work with one of Art's contemporaries. I chimed in how I thought the
"War Manual" was his best (at least my favorite)...the good doctor
scrunched up his forehead, "but it's just tactics and formations..."

I just smiled...different strokes I guess.

Just curious. Did Freeman actually fly missions with the 8th?
