He who learns must suffer. And even in our sleep pain that cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart, and in our own despair, against our will, comes wisdom to us by the awful grace of God.

Look At The Angels - WWII Ninth Air Force History


Click here to download a copy of "Look At The Angels: The Story of Tactical Air Power in the Battle of Western Europe," by my grandfather, Maj. William B. Abbott, Jr. This book was completed in 1945, but was never published. It includes a Foreward written by Lt. Gen. Hoyt S. Vandenberg, commander of the Ninth AIr Force.
