This book is respectfully dedicated to the memory of CAPT Edwin R. Manchester, a 535ih BS "original" pilot who was killed in action over Bremen on 8 October 1943. Truly "For my Tomorrow, you gave your Today". My gratitude for a life of freedom also goes to the late General (four star) Joseph J. Nazzaro, Colonel Conway S. Hall (Group COs) and all personnel of the 381st Bomb Group who lived up to their unit motto "Triumphant We Fly" during twenty-two months of unremitting combat.
