Description
On December 7, 1941, the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor, officially bringing the US into World War II. A new generation of pilots were recruited to fly bombing missions for the US, and from that group, volunteers were requested for a dangerous secret assignment. For the first time in American history, Army bombers would be launched from an aircraft carrier. Once at sea, they were told their mission used to be a retaliation strike against targets in Tokyo. But at the day of the raid, a Japanese patrol boat spotted them and so they needed to launch early, with barely enough fuel to get them past their target.
After the bombing, some pilots crashed, some were captured, and plenty of ended up in mainland China and were carried to safety by Chinese villagers, being hunted by Japanese forces all of the even as. With tales of high-flying action and bravery, Raid of No Return is a story of heartbreak and survival all through wartime.
