actually i have been reading "The Poltava Affair" by Glenn Infield. it is a book about the "shuttle" missions to the USSR and is very enlightening in many ways. the shuttle missions where where the US took B 17s and/or 24 off from italy and the uk...escorted by mustangs to bomb targets deep in axis territory. its not full of daring and edge of seat excitement but will show the dynamics of the "allies" and ....well, i will let you decide. you can probably find the book cheap....i got it of a co-worker whop bought it at a second hand store for pennies. but it is a worthwhile read.
