Description

More than just another blood-‘n-guts memoir, Norm Berg’s MY CARRIER WAR is a detailed account of carrier pilots and their planes, an engaging love story and a courageous examination of a young man’s battle with–and eventual victory over–fear and self-doubt.

On December 7, 1941, the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor. Three days later, a young Navy pilot-in-training won his wings and soon found himself flying torpedo planes against enemy targets in the Pacific. From his days as a naval aviation cadet aboard the “Yellow Peril” biplane trainer, to his first bombing runs on Guadalcanal, to his life aboard an aircraft carrier in the South Pacific, Norman Berg offers a fast-paced narrative filled with humor and meticulous attention to detail.

Much more than a simple WWII memoir, this story goes beyond the action of battle to explore the author’s innermost conflicts and chronicles one young couple’s wartime struggle to balance love, duty, and commitment.
