In words and pictures, this is the story of the US Air Force in Europe - enlisted personnel, officers, men, women, ground crews and air crews - rational people in the world's most irrational business. Skinner and Hall visited major European air bases and returned with a graphic, absorbing portrait of the Air Force at the edge of war - from security to flightline operations to mission briefings to pilots' tall tales. USAFE is about the balance of power in the skies of Europe, about the changing nature of modern air combat, and most of all, about airmen and their world.
