BBlack Sheep Squadron book coverlack Sheep One: The Life of Gregory "Pappy" Boyington
by Bruce Gamble
The first biography of legendary warrior, lover, drinker, and World War II hero Gregory Boyington. A "warts and all" story. Some fans of the TV series might not like the emphasis on his drinking and how it so negatively affected his life. I think it is an excellent biography.
