Avenging Angel A Pilot's Story

"... A date which will live in infamy... " Those words, spoken by President Franklin D. Roosevelt on December 7th, 1941, spurred young Carl Bridger, the son of a Montana cattle rancher, to answer the call to duty in the Pacific Theater of Operations. Join Carl as he is transformed from a cowboy into a warrior-pilot of the B-25 Mitchell. Go into combat with the 501st "Black Panthers" Squadron of the famous 345th Bombardment Group, "Air Apaches" of Tacloban, San Marcelino, and le Shima, whose assignment was to slam the door on the advance of Japanese forces in the South China Sea and the Indo-Chinese mainland. Fly with Carl and the rest of the "Black Panthers" in this gripping odyssey that rips Carl from his family and beloved Annie, and takes him through the heroic and often nightmarish air battles of the last few months of WWII in the Pacific. Buckle-in with the crew of Avenging Angel on sorties inspired by the true WWII mission logs of the "Air Apaches."
