Beyond the Call: The True Story of One WWII Pilot's Covert Mission to Rescue POWs

Author: Lee Trimble
Stars: 5
Review by: Doug Logg

Very good book about POW rescues from the Eastern Front. The author's father was a WW2 bomber pilot. And after 35 combat missions over Germany was sent on a special mission to the Eastern Front. The Russian's thought he was there just to recover disabled American aircraft. What they didn't know was that was only his cover. His real assignment was to recover American & British POWs that had been freed from Nazi POW camps. Was good story about a part of the war I had never heard about.
