About this listen

These are B-29 pilot Philip D. Webster’s World War 2 memoirs, Thirty-Five Missions Over Japan. These are true tales of enormous courage, heroism, and heartbreak.

Listen to firsthand accounts of training and piloting B-17s and B-29s, Webster’s thrilling missions between Saipan and Japan, and the P-51s and P-47s out of Iwo Jima that flew alongside. Written from notes made in 1944 and 1945 and stored undisturbed in an Army-issue briefcase for over 60 years, this account was drawn from vivid memory and written during the seven-and-a-half-hour flights back home to Saipan after missions. These were notes about the fighters they had to contend with, planes shot down, flak encountered, and damage done. This book puts you in the pilot's seat during one thrilling mission after another.

Expertly narrated by Miguel Conner.
