They were known as the Liberators-as were the planes they flew. Though they started with little to no flying experience, these brave young men were in the midst of intensive training with plans to ship out and fly raids over Nazi Germany in a matter of days.
But on October 23, 1943, a final training flight took a devastating turn. In the skies over Milligan, Nebraska, a tragic crash took the lives of seventeen airmen and leaving only one survivor. This terrible loss resonated throughout the small town, where the men had made countless connections with locals-and of course, with the loved ones they had left behind.
In The Liberators, John P. Herzog recounts a touching ceremony held by the people of Milligan in 2010 as they created a state memorial to pay tribute to the veterans whose lives were lost. A nephew of Lt. William Herzog, who perished in the crash, the author explores how this single incident touched the lives of so many-and, through the Air Force's investigation into the event, would go on to save the lives of thousands of flyers in the decades to come.
