Lieutenant Junior Grade Charles M.
Houston, USN (ret.) is the author of Flying with Iron Angels: The Diaries and Memories of Navy Carrier Pilots
Fighting the Pacific War in 1944. According to the MOAA, “The Iron Angels were Navy fighter pilots who
flew the Grumman Hellcat to escort and protect dive bombers and torpedo planes. Here is a collection of personal diary accounts
of their daily activities, interspersed with today’s memories of these same veterans as they review their adventures
of a half-century ago. In addition to human interest and drama, this narrative is packed with accurate historical information
about World War II as it was fought in the skies and over the islands of the Pacific Ocean.”
