Many of these men became air combat legends, and one, Neil Armstrong, the first astronaut to walk on the moon.Such Men As These brims with action-packed accounts of combat and unforgettable portraits of the pilots whose skill and sacrifice made epic history., Hardcover, Label: Da Capo Press, Da Capo Press, Produktgruppe: Book, Publiziert: 2010-05-11, Studio: Da Capo Press, Verkaufsrang: 1099866.
