dedication in book -
This book is dedicated to the men and women in the aircraft factories of America, the men and women who, as skilled soldiers on the production line, have given us the weapons with which to fight.  Their heart and nerve and sinew have forged with steel our Air Power on the many fighting fronts.  And as Air Power goes, so goes the battle.
