Maurer, Maurer.Air Force Combat Units of World War II

This book is concerned primarily with the combat (or tactical) groups that were active during the Second World War.  Although such groups had numerous designations, early all fell within four major categories;  bombardment, fighter, reconnaissance, and troop carrier.  The book covers both the combat groups that served overseas and those that remained in the United States.  It also covers combat organization above the group level.  The organizations are presented under the designations they carried on September 2, 1945.  For each organization there is information concerning insigne, lineage, operations, assignments, aircraft (for groups only), components, stations, commanders, campaigns, and decorations.
