For the US airman in World War Two, flying was not just a test of skill, but it was also a feat of stamina, endurance and, often a matter of sheer survival. And it was not just the weapons of the enemy that presented a threat to life, it was the conditions in which crew had to operate - at high altitude where the air is thin and the temperature is extremely low.
