## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Amazing Life!
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on March 2, 2022*

I have recommended this book to many people and all have enjoyed it. Virgil Westdale's sister was my second-grade teacher and her daughter is a life-long friend. I had no idea about the family's history growing up half-Japanese in rural Indiana or about Virgil's service in WW 2. Virgil just passed away last month at age 104!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Blue Skies and Thunder is a Great Read
  

*by J***N on Reviewed in the United States on February 17, 2018*

Really enjoyed reading this!  He lives in the vicinity where I currently live.  Yesterday he was honored by a VFW group on his 100 birthday..  My husband worked for his brother at one time. I grew up near Camp Shelby where the 442 trained.  We attended college classes with some of the division that came back to Hattiesburg after the war.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Thank you Mr. Westdale
  

*by N***R on Reviewed in the United States on August 2, 2013*

I had the opportunity to meet Mr. Westdale while on a flight. We have similar interest. We have lived and visited many of the same places. We exchanged business cards. I bought this book and have picked it up from time to time to read on flights. I can hear him reading it. Mr. Westdale makes me proud not only to be an American, but an engineer from Michigan. Thanks, Virgil!
