When young dive-bomber pilot is dismissed for reckless behavior, he’s reassigned to the Black Cat squadron as the co-pilot of a giant Catalina seaplane, The Sea Witch. He’s thrown into a whole new world, where a Catalina carries five tons of bombs, a half-dozen machine guns, and a crew that walks a fine line between valor and a death wish.
A daring rescue mission forces them deep into enemy territory, where the crew of the Sea Witch must band together as never before. Each man will soon find out what he’s made of... and not everyone will make it back alive.

"Way too short"
I thought this was way too short of a story. I felt there could have been so much more put into this story and made it a much better story
"Great insight into the soldiers mind set & history"
I enjoyed the book, it was entertaining but it was too short and lacked entertaining diversions with the ladies. Which would have been very natural with the World War II setting.
