From the Top Turret is a true story of courage, faith, family and commitment. It takes readers on Gerard Caporaso's tumultuous journey from training in the U.S. Eighth Air Force during World War II to the moment when his plane crash landed in a field outside Thiacourt, France during the second invasion on Schweinfurt and his survival as a prisoner of war. Only a prison camp full of ingenious engineers could find so many uses for the contents of a Red Cross parcel. This is Gerard’s personal story of triumphant survival and returning home to build the American dream. http://www.amazon.com/dp/0615696325/ref=rdr_ext_tmb
