Dust jacket now protected in mylar sleeve. Congressional Medal of Honor winner "Pappy" Boyington, whose popular autobiography Baa Baa Black Sheep has been praised as a war memoir that "ranks with the best," was shot down on January 3, 1944 (Boston Herald). That same day Masajiro Kawato, a young Japanese flyer, opened fire on an American Corsair F4U over the Pacific, following the plane as it "went into a dive, [maneuvering] left and right" until its pilot parachuted out and the plane went "down, skimming the surface of the ocean." Years later, when Kawato moved to the United States, he met "Pappy" Boyington and after the men became friends, concluded that the flyer shot down by that day was in fact the legendary American pilot. Abridged special edition, 1st American edition.
