Bloody Skies

In "Bloody Skies: XV Fighter Command Against All Odds," author Thomas McKelvey Cleaver, narrated by Christopher Ragland, explores the crucial yet often overlooked role of the USAAF’s XV Fighter Command during World War II. Established in 1943, this unit protected bombers on bombing runs over Romania, playing a significant part in the Allies' efforts despite being overshadowed by the more celebrated Eighth Air Force. Through first-person accounts from fighter pilots, including the renowned Tuskegee Airmen, Cleaver captures the challenges and achievements of these aviators in the air war.
