Synopsis

Peter H. Dominick was a war hero prior to becoming a respected US congressman, senator, and ambassador. “Flying the Hump” over the Himalayas during World War II meant risking your life in often-dilapidated planes while transporting crucial supplies to Allied forces fighting the Japanese in the China/Burma/India Theater. Dominick was one of the lucky few to survive “The Aluminum Trail,” so called because of the number of aircraft that crashed along the perilous route.

Years later, Dominick’s family discovered parts of a diary that featured his daily experiences during the war. Many of the stories were unknown to his family and provide an intimate look at the stresses these brave men endured. The diary also contained a thrilling short story that Dominick wrote based on his experiences. It is included in this volume compiled by his son, Alexander S. Dominick, along with additional photos and information in this updated edition.
