When American Boys Fell from Yugoslav Skies
The summer of 1944 brought terror from above to the mountains of northern Yugoslavia-but not in the way you'd expect. Young American airmen tumbled from burning B-24 bombers, their planes torn apart by German flak during raids on Romanian oil fields. Clare Musgrove found himself trapped in his ball turret, frantically hand-cranking the mechanism while watching the ground rush closer. When his parachute failed to deploy, he clawed at the silk with bare hands in free fall, finally catching air just moments before impact. He landed in a foreign land where military intelligence had warned him the locals would torture and kill any Allied personnel on sight. What happened next defied everything he'd been told-and would remain classified for two decades. Over 500 Allied airmen found themselves protected by Serbian villagers and guerrilla fighters who risked genocide to shelter them. The rescue operation that followed was so extraordinary that when Tom Hanks learned about it, he declared it "too incredible even for Hollywood."
