Synopsis

Focuses on all forty-eight 8th AF bomb groups and features color illustrations depicting the evolution of all fuselage, wing, and tail markings assigned to the individual units.

Relying heavily upon visuals, Battle Colors fills a longstanding void in the annals of the Eighth Air Force during World War II.

Details concerning the proper size, placement, color, and configuration of all tactical markings of US Bomber Command are addressed. Group and squadron combat insignia, as well as airfield location maps for each unit, are also depicted.

All bombardment units incorporated within the Eighth are indexed and easily cross-referenced by squadron, group, wing, and division assignments.

Additionally, all major components comprising the Eighth have been organized into quick-reference organizational flow charts that show the actual order of battle for the “Mighty Eighth.”

This book is an invaluable tool for anyone with an interest in the history of the US 8th Air Force in WWII.
