O knihe

In an engaging screenplay style, American Headhunter is based upon a true story, the untold account of P-38 pilot Kenneth Lloyd Sr. in WWII air combat in New Guinea, Dutch East Indies, and the Philippines. The story captures the amazing transition of a young boy into a man to become one of the "greatest generations." The exciting story captures the boy's love for the P-38 fighter aircraft, the first airplane to be developed by Clarence "Kelly" Johnson from the "Skunk Works" of Lockheed Aircraft Corporation, Burbank, California. The young pilot also miraculously finds the love his life on a blind date on New Year's Eve, 1943.

You are there with this pilot-in the air, in the jungles-cussing, singing, and fighting a relentless foe as well as his human insecurities and fears. You will experience firsthand the true story of the fierce night air battle off the island of Mindoro, Philippines, December 26, 1944. You will be mad, sad, but glad you read this story as told by the pilot's son in memory of his father.
