Two-Man Air Force: Don Gentile and John Godfrey: World War II Flying Legends (2006) By Philip Kaplan
 
American volunteers Don Gentile and John Godfrey flew together as leader and wingman, respectively, with the USAAF 4th Fighter Group based at Debden near Cambridge. At the end of their missions with the 4th, the two of them had accounted for over 58 enemy aircraft destroyed. Major Gentile had scored 22 air and 6 ground kills before he was returned to the USA to help raise money for the war effort. Major Godfrey was credited with 18 air and 12 ground kills before he was shot down and taken prisoner of war.

This is the story of their amazing adventures and wartime partnership from their basic training in Canada and then onto England, where they first flew the Supermarine Spitfire. It continues with their transfer to the USAAF 4th Fighter Group upon the US entry into the war.

These two ace pilots loved life as much as flying, and were hell-bent on destroying the enemy in the skies over Europe; they also lived life to the full in their off-duty time in England.
