The Carpetbagger Project: Secret Heroes

One of the best-kept secrets of World War II was The Carpetbagger Project. The American Army Eighth Air Force 801st/492nd Bomb Group, code name "Carpetbaggers", along with British RAF Special Forces, flew highly classified "Special Operations" to deliver arms, supplies and secret agents into enemy occupied Europe. Together with the American Office of Strategic Services and the British Special Operations Executive, The Carpetbagger Project equipped resistance groups from Norway to Yugoslavia. "Secret Heroes" - A Pictorial History of The Carpetbagger Project - commemorates the men and women during World War II code named "The Carpetbaggers". The book contains over 200 rare photographs of this secret WWII operation.
