There is an excellent book named The Thousand Mile War by Brian Garfield about the battles in the Aleutian Archipelago. It documents the fact that the aircraft often had to fly a thousand miles for one mission. I remember seeing it for years around the house when I was growing up in Detroit. I finally read it years later when I was in my Twenties. I highly recommend it.
