Synopsis:
One airplane escapes to neutral Russia, but the others crash or are destroyed in China, within enemy territory. Some of the raiders die in crashes, some are captured and tortured, others are executed. Most, however, make it back to Allied lines thanks to the work of the Chinese, who suffer a quarter-million dead in revenge. The Raiders hold repeated reunions, and as of the writing of the book Richard E. Cole was the sole survivor, aged 101.
