Description

Absolutely Fearless: The Life of Raymond H. Littge, Missouri's Top Scoring WWII Fighter Pilot Ace, written by Kathy Evans and Lisa Frankel, has just been released on Amazon. Captain Littge's story moves from his childhood in the small town of Altenburg, Mo., through his service in the Army Air Corps during World War II. His war exploits are described through military records, Ray's flight log, gun camera film and his partially completed autobiography, along with family interviews, news articles and his sister, Altheda Littge Schmelig's diary. Captain Littge's battles included flying support during the D Day Invasion, the Battle of the Bulge, Market Garden and Y-29. He flew multiple bomber escorts. He was awarded the Distinguished Service Cross, Silver Star, Distinguished Flying Cross, Air Medal with 15 Oak Leaf Clusters, Distinguished Unit Citation and French Croix de Guerre with Palm for his bravery. This book was written to honor and preserve RayLittge's memory for his family and for those interested in the history of WWII as well as what life was like growing up in rural Missouri in the 1920s, 1930s and beyond, as told in Altheda's voice through her diary, included in the book. Even if one is not a WWII or aviation history buff, readers will be engaged by the period stories and details described in this book.
