Anxious to get into action, what he does not know is that his mission will be in China, flying dangerous cargo over the Himalayan Mountains . As a Hump Pilot in the CBI Theatre of War he faces the dangers on his daily routes through enemy territories.He tells of surviving air raids and catastrophic storms and two plane crashes, but his luck runs out when he and his crew are forced to bail out of a doomed C-47 during a storm over a remote mountainous area of China populated by headhunters. What will it take for him to survive?
