Baa Baa Black Sheep: The True Story of the "Bad Boy" Hero of the Pacific Theatre and His Famous Black Sheep Squadron
- Used Book in Good Condition
Here, in his own words, is the true story of America's wildest flying hero, of his extraordinary heroism, and of his greatest battle of allâ€”the fight to survive.

The World War II air war in the Pacific needed tough men like Colonel Pappy Boyington and his Black Sheep Squadron. The legendary Marine Corps officer and his bunch of misfits, outcasts, and daredevils gave new definition to â€œhell-raisingâ€â€”on the ground and in the skies.Â

Pappy himself was a living legendâ€”he personally shot down twenty-eight Japanese planes, and won the Congressional Medal of Honor and the Navy Cross. He broke every rule in the book doing so, but when he fell into the hands of the vengeful Japanese his real ordeal began.
