As a non-combatant member of the Army Air Force, young Dick Whinfield from the small town of Sheboygan, Wisconsin was among the first twenty-five Control Tower operators to be sent to the war in the Pacific. His experiences in five different control towers in fearsome combat areas were frightening, frequently boring and very educational. In his book My War he tells tales of excitement, tragedy and often of amusing antics. While he was living through a most distressing time, he tells of the great comradery he had with the crews with whom he worked. The book starts with his life just before entering the service and then takes him all the way through his exhilarating experiences in the armed service. It ends with his return to his high school sweetheart and a happy marriage.
