A Higher Call by Larry Alexander
On December 20, 1943, in the skies above war-torn Europe, an American B-17 pilot and a veteran German fighter ace met in what became one of World War II's most unusual encounters. Two airmen of opposing nations managed to put aside the violence and hatred of armed conflict, when the German ace escorted the severely damaged B-17 to safety. Adam Makos and Larry Alexander tell this little known true story of empathy and kindness between enemy combatants in the midst of one of the bloodiest wars in history and of their continuing friendship.
Larry Alexander has been a journalist and columnist for the Intelligencer Journal newspaper in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, for more than a decade, winning numerous awards for excellence in journalism. He grew up on the same street in the same town as Major Dick Winters, three decades later.
