Major Jack C. Hubbard, USAF (ret.)
is the author of Patriots Will: Surviving the Great Depression and World War II Combat. According
to the Coral Sea Breeze, “Hubbard started out in the Canadian army in a tank battalion because his flat feet kept him
out of the American service. He eventually worked his way into the Air Force after service as an MP. He was a radio operator-gunner
in the 369th Bomb Squadron of the 306th Bomb Group. The MOAA said of Patriots Will: Surviving the Great
Depression and World War II Combat, “This gripping memoir follows an adventurous youth through perils and triumphs.
Step back in history to ride with escaped prisoners, meet notorious "Texas Slim," ship out to England amid German
U-Boats, and fly 24 B-17 missions over Nazi Germany. A rare insight through Jack Hubbard's eyes as he makes the best of
seemingly endless horrible situations while happenstance puts him in contact with celebrities and delightful escapades.”
