BAA BAA BLACK SHEEP by Gregory "Pappy" Boyington; PUBLISHER: G. P. Putnam's Sons, NYC, NY; 1958 printing; 384 pages.
Colonel Gregory Boyington, USMC, has written one of the great books of World War II. It might be described as the story of a wild, hard drinking, professional Marine flyer who was one of the most unconventional heroes of the war. Winners of the nation's highest honor are inspired to rise above themselves and set a...n example for all who resepect them. "Pappy" Boyington had no desire to change his ways because he had happened to be lucky and fearless, and a competent leader of men as wild and independent as he was. he had never let anyone kick him around, and he saw no reason why he should let the Japanese do so in the air or after he was taken prisoner.
