"Flying a Piper Cub aircraft for artillery fire direction at the front lines against German forces in World War II was hazardous. Shot down twice, Joe Gordon survived to tell what it was like being a pilot of such a plane in combat. The Piper Cub aircraft, flying at the leading edge of American armored divisions, was especially useful as a spotter plane. The advantage of the view a few hunded feet above the leading tanks often resulted in devastating artillery fire raining down upon the enemy just where and when it was needed the most. Joe Gordon fought with the 65th Armored Artillery Battalion in battles from the German border with the Netherlands to the Rhine River and from the Rhine to the Elbe River until almost the end of the European war in May 1945."--Inside back dust cover.
