B-24 Liberator Units of the Fifteenth Air Force

The sterling work of the Fifteenth Air Force is often overshadowed by
the glamorous 'Mighty Eighth', yet the men flying the B-24 fought
ceaselessly right through to VE Day.


The B-24 was heavily
utilised in the North African and Mediterranean theatres by the USAAF's
Fifteenth Air Force, with operations over the Ploesti oilfields in
Rumania being some of the most famous missions undertaken by the big
American 'heavy' in World War 2.

This is the third of five titles
charting the operational history of the Consolidated heavy bomber, and
is the first single volume to exclusively cover the Fifteenth Air
Force's B-24 units.The sterling work of the Fifteenth Air Force is often overshadowed by
