The incredible true story of fighter pilot Joe Moser's war in the sky and secret survival at Buchenwald during World War II.On August 13, 1944, Joe Moser set off on his 44th combat mission over occupied France. Tom Clavin's Lightning Down tells this largely untold and riveting true story.Moser was just 22 years old, a farmboy from Washington State who fell in love with flying. Soon, he would join almost 150 other Allied airmen as prisoners in Buchenwald, one of the most notorious and deadly of Nazi concentration camps.
But on that hot August morning he had to bail out of his damaged, burning plane. During the war he realized his dream of piloting a P-38 Lightning, one of the most effective weapons the Army Air Corps had against the powerful German Luftwaffe. Captured immediately, Moser's journey into hell began.Joe Moser and his courageous comrades
