"The Wild Blue", by historian Stephen Ambrose, was published in 2001. The book details the lives and WWII experiences of pilots, bombardier, navigators, radio operators and gunners flying B-24s of the U.S. Army Air Forces against Germany, with a detailed recounting given of pilot George McGovern's career as a pilot with the 455th Bomb Group in Italy, encompassing 35 bombing missions, which were completed despite bad weather and heavy flak attacks from German anti-aircraft guns.

There has been discovered numerous counts of plagiarism and text merely lifted from endnote sources. Came up in the article by Forbes "Did Ambrose Write Wild Blue, Or Just Edit It?".
