World War II is raging. A young
father must choose between his family and duty to his country- a decision that
could cost him everything.
Based on actual
experiences of United States veterans
and official military aviation history records
from World War II, this is the
thrilling story of a family’s journey into war. While his loved ones struggle
with shortages and rationing at home, Sam endures relentless Japanese attacks
against his unarmed aircraft over the treacherous mountains and torrid jungles
of Asia. His job is to drop supplies to Merrill’s
Marauders and over 750,000 allied
soldiers fighting in the perilous jungles of Burma. If the enemy is not
stopped, the American way of life
will end.
If you like non-stop action with a touch of humor and romance
and the chance to learn about the “forgotten
front” of WWII, then this is the
book for you.
R Grey Hoover is an Air Force
veteran with a family tradition of military service that dates back to the
American revolution. He wrote his book “Kicker the forgotten front” to honor
his father and the other veterans of World War II who fought in the China-Burma-India
(CBI) theatre. During the war, the
European and Pacific theatres got most of the supplies and media attention
leaving the CBI theatre with the leftovers. Even in today’s media coverage of
World War II the CBI theatre is never mentioned. The author’s book is an
attempt to correct this gross oversight.
