A Higher Call

[OldDog]

A late addition to my Christmas wish list:

New book "A Higher Call" tells of interactions between American WWII pilot Charlie Brown and German flying ace Franz Stigler

Great story, thanks...at first thought the German was the Red Baron but remember he was WWI..

Stigler and Brown both had heart attacks and died in 2008, six months apart. Stigler was 92; Brown, 87.

In their obituaries, each was listed to the other as “a special brother.”
