Marauder: Memoir of a B-26 Pilot in Europe in World War II
Solid...Rehr's book certainly resonates with more restraint, responsibility, and vision than most pilot memoirs...the author, assisted by his wife, has turned in work as meritorious as his service in the skies over Europe in 1944-45 --Stone & Stone Second World War BooksRehr has a smooth writing style and manages to describe the interior of a Parisian brothel with the same candor as he does dodging Axis flak at 13,000 ft. Rehr does an excellent job of describing the devastating capabilities of Germany's Me262 jet...excellent photographs...each image has been carefully chosen to punctuate the commentary leaving nothing to the imagination...a fast-paced read with excellent insights to the leadership personality and the performance of a thoroughbred medium bomber. Look for some great commentary on the Ardennes Offensive, D Day's aftermath, and Adolf Galland's JV 44 --Dave 'Prophet' Williams, The WWII Aviation BooklistBeautifully produced with a fascinating series of photographs both aeronautical and personal--this is a fine testament to the 'Marauder Men' --Flypast
