Description:
The story of 'Pappy' Boyingtons Black Sheep Corsair Squadron fighting in the Pacific during the early days of WWII. It's told by the group's intelligence officer. Very fast moving and full of action, it offers a view of the Black Sheep air group from a different direction than Boyington's own history.
