Synopsis
American history is full of heroes: individuals who went above and beyond to ensure the safety and freedom of others. In some cases, they paid the ultimate price. This is the story of one such forgotten warrior, a World War II US Navy fighter pilot charged with defending Henderson Field, Guadalcanal, and other lands against Japanese air attacks with the Cactus Air Force. He was Lieutenant Francis Register, also known as "Pinky"-and while he did not survive to speak of his actions during the war, this navy ace fought for his country to the point of exhaustion and beyond. His bravery earned him a Distinguished Flying Cross, two Air Medals, and a Purple Heart, the latter three awarded posthumously. Fortunately for readers, Lt. Register went against wartime regulations and kept a diary, documenting his daily life, fears, and frustrations while serving in the war. Along with interviews and surviving family members, this diary was used as one of the primary sources for this valuable look at a real American hero, affectionately penned by triple e-Lit award winning author William Franklin Hook, MD, author of Never Subdued and Desert Storm Diary .

    Book in perfect new condition/appearance and a great value at this price; the packaging was of the usual thoughtful protective sort that I've come to expect from this seller; and the shipping was super-duper fast, again, as always. I've purchased many books from this seller and have never been less than thrilled with any of them. Thanks again, fine Gardner folks!

    The Folio book I have been looking for for years arrived yesterday! It was beautifully packaged and is in perfect condition. The seller kept me informed and updated on each step of the sale and the book arrives sooner than expected. I will definitely be back to check Gardner’s Used Books for other fine books as I am updating my entire library to hardback, well made books. The price was reasonable compared with other sellers too! Happy customer here!
