Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

World War II B-24 crew beats the odds over Pacific waters.Brothers at Daybreak tells the intimate story of 11 boys who got together in 1944 to fight World War II from the air above the vast Pacific Ocean. The young members of Pilot Frank Jeter's flight crew took their role in defeating the Japanese one mission and one day at a time. They stuck together to face the constant threat of falling out of the sky in war- weary B-24 bombers that lost engines and ran out of fuel at the most inopportune times. The Jeter Crew's time together wasn't all tragic and sad, however. They thoroughly enjoyed their time away from war and quickly learned the art of shutting out fear and grief with a bottle of beer or a shot of whiskey. Brothers at Daybreak chronicles the Jeter Crew's postwar lives and the enduring bond of brotherhood they never allowed to loosen.
