Pen and Sword’s A Bomber Crew Mystery by David Price is a highly intriguing text as it contains an outstanding study of an individual bomber crew while also melding a war time relic into the beginning of the historical search start point...

I would highly recommend those interested to add a copy of “A Bomber Crew Mystery” to your collection and let the roar of the engines propel you back into a time and place well worth exploring.

Had to have this book. My Father, Louis Panther was the pilot of the B-17 Vagabond Lady and is mentioned in the book along with the circumstances that took place when he was shot down and taken prisoner. He was stationed at Knettishall with the 388th Bombardment Group, 561st. Squadron. He stayed in the Air Force after the war and was stationed at RAF Sculthorp England flying B-45 jet bombers with the 49th Air Division, 47th Bomb Wing. We lived in Aylsham for two years and he took us to Knettishall twice. Of course in the 50's there was much more of the base to look at than is left today.

If you have a family member or knew someone who was a member of a B-17's crew, you will love this book. David Price did a great deal of research and gave a very exacting account of two crews of the 388th.
