"Low Level Mission" by Leon Wolff is a historical account that delves into the daring B-24 raid on Ploesti during World War II. This gripping narrative sheds light on the events of August 1, 1943, when approximately 166 B-24 bombers from the US Army Air Force executed a low-level attack on the refining complex in and around the city of Ploiesti (now Romania).
The mission was fraught with challenges, and the book provides insights into the complexities faced by the American airmen during this audacious operation. Despite its flaws, the raid remains a significant chapter in the annals of military history.
