Synopsis "a street called darwin"

A Street Called Darwin is based on a real individual: Charles Darwin Foard. This man grew up in southwestern Wisconsin, was drafted into the United States Army in 1941. He applied for and was accepted into the Army Air Corps, the forerunner of the present day United States Air Force. Darwin trained in Texas, learning how to fly a B-24 bomber. His first assignments were long-range bombing missions in the South Pacific against Japanese-held installations. He was killed in a tragic runway crash on Biak Island in 1944. While this book is about the military life of this remarkable young man, it also reveals his very human side as he interacts with family and acquaintances. The basis for this biography of Darwin is a collection of letters, photos and documents which were kept by his parents and relatives. The author came into their possession in 2007 and quickly discovered that there was a story that just had to be told.
