The Carpetbagger Project: Secret Heroes

I've always wondered what my Dad did in WW2 because he wouldn't talk about it. All I knew was it had something to do with flying a B-24 for the OSS. He passed on without talking much about it, and it was only by luck that I stumbled ontothe term "Carpetbagger Project." None of the other books I've found on this topic come anywhere close to this one.Excellent photos, organization, writing, and editing. Every word carries its own weight on the page, and the stories told cover the topic well. Covers the scope and range of the program, beyond just France and Germany. Doesn't bog down into one person's "How I / He Won the War," like too many others. Buy this one, don't waste your money on the others.

good story of " Carpetbaggers"Lots of stories not toldMy brothers crew,Hudson group" were last plane and crew (KIA), April 6th, 1just before Germany surrendered.He was not on that mission...only 2 airmen from his squadran came back. A secret outfit, with very few survivers. Heroes of the past.!

Awesome history of little-known daring-do pilots who dropped secret agents and supplies behind German lines in World War II. These flyers were the birth of Special Operations Aviation. Fantastic history -- if it wasn't real, you wouldn't believe it.

A lot of pictures with explanations but not a lot of information. This may be because the Carpetbagger project was such a secret.

I was disappointed. It had too many pictures not enough info. The first book Carpetbaggers was much more informative. I did not purchase more as I did for the other book.

A great story of the people involved in the secret side of the war.So good to hear the American side of ww11.
