Indeed...I read “30 Seconds Over Tokyo” when I was seven, and it influenced my viewpoint on a lot of things. A year later, my Dad got orders to Japan, and we all went with him. It was interesting.
If you are interested, I finished reading “Neptune’s Infrerno” about the naval battles around the Solomon Islands. A real horrorshow. Best book of its kind I have read in years, on par with Samuel Eliot Morison’s works, even better because it is much more in depth.

Actually, they had practiced taking off on a stretch of airfield as long as an aircraft carrier. Of course, the air strip wasn’t pitching....
