I liked this story because it brought back memories.  My dad fought in WW11 as a radio operator in the Army Air Force.  He was in many airplanes that flew over the Pacific.  He had malaria in the Philippines.  My husband said that this was probably the most justified war that the US has ever entered.The romance part of it I really did like, but as the author eluded to, the reality would have probably been different than the fantasy. (not sure he used these words.  Isn't that true with all of us?  Our imaginary life is wonderful until we actually live it.  Of course she --- well that would be a spoiler so I won't pontificate.Although there isn't much history in this book, it is another little glimpse into that period of time.  For one, you couldn't get a divorce unless both parties agreed to it.  One of the spouses could refuse, and if it was yours, you would be married forever.  Your spouse would end up with all the benefits that might be available to that person.  Just a thought.(my son is in the Air Force in Wichita Falls Texas.
