Follow on Google News | New book titled "Well Done" by: Nancy Hungerford"I wanted to write a fitting tribute to him – and those who served. So many of them are unsung heroes. Frankly, it was my final "love story" for him." ~ Nancy Hungerford
Nancy Hungerford drew on Robert's writings to create this book over the course of more than ten years. She has done an admirable wordsmith's job of "being" the book's hero and seeing his circumstances as he did. Included are many technical details of flying, such as being catapulted in his plane from the ship's deck to land again on that deck which looked like a postage stamp from the air. As a Naval aviator, flying the Hellcat off of the USS Franklin in the Pacific Theater, having been hit during the missions, and being a witness to the deaths of comrades and pals, reveals the impact WWII had on Robert's life. Nancy Hungerford's work can be appreciated by older readers who lived through those times and by younger people with interest in and aspirations to a higher, sky-level, calling.
