30 - Lucky 666: The Impossible Mission
In 1943 a lone B-17 Bomber set off on a solo reconnaissance mission, it was to be a 1200 mile round trip. Passing within range of Japanese airbases they were swarmed by Zero fighters...
It would be only plane of the war where two of the personal would win the Medal of Honor.
I'm joined by Bob Drury, co-author of Lucky 666: The Impossible Mission.
