For those of us who are offspring from the World War II generation, we feel an ever stronger sense of respect in honoring those that gave their lives for such a great cause. There is a strong sense of responsibility for us in keeping their names alive, and maybe it might be that we are the last real link to them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e As youngsters we witnessed the war heroes that received a lot of attention especially those involved in the flying world, but it was sad to think of the aircrews that were lost states-wide whose names were never known. They never had a chance to fight a war, but they were just as much a hero as anyone else. Just think of where they might have gone in life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Contents: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Chapter 1: Grand Coulee P-63A Kingcobra\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Chapter 2: Feathered Engine: A B-24's Failed Go Around\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Chapter 3: \"Tommy's Tigator\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Chapter 4: United Flight 173: Portland Oregon\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Chapter 5: Missing F4F Wildcats Found\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Chapter 6: Mid-Air Over The Olympics\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Chapter 7: General Aviation and Unidentified Sites\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Chapter 8: \"Dutch Roll\" Sheds Engines From Boeing 707 Jetliner\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Chapter 9: \"Firewood One\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Chapter 10: B-47E Refueling Technique Turns Night Mission Into Disaster\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Chapter 11: \"Article 123\" The Cover Up\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Chapter 12: Speed Brakes: A Fatal Consequence to a Sabre Jet Forced Landing\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Chapter 13: High Altitude Stall Downs P-47D Thunderbolt\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Chapter 14: Controlled Flight Into Terrain Chapter 15: Failure of Engine Turbine Wheel Severs Aft Fuselage from F-86D Sabre\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Chapter 16: Mid-Air Break-Up: The Touchet B-24 Tragedy\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Chapter 17: Broken Connecting Rod Ends Airacobra Night Flight\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Chapter 18: The Salish Peak F-89s\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Chapter 19: Ejection From F-86 Sabre Jet Conforms With Fire Warning Light\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Chapter 20: Echelon Formation Creates Airacobra Collision\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Chapter 21: Blackbird's Night Training Mission Goes Awry\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Chapter 22: Mystery Solved: Super Sabre Found Hundreds Of Miles Off Course\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Chapter 23: Inclement Weather: A Trap for a Vultee BT-13\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Chapter 24: Snow Storm Dooms B-25 On Mt.
