Arthur George Joseph "Arch" Whitehouse, M.M. was a World War I Veteran and author of World War I aviation books. He was a 1st Class Air mechanic and Observer with the No. 22 Squadron RAF. On 13 April 1917 Whitehouse and his Pilot Bush were brought down by anti-aircraft fire; Whitehouse believed afterward that the Red Baron mistakenly listed Whitehouse/Bush among the Barons's "credits"-although this was not so. For taking part in shooting down German Aircraft and airplane raiding missions he was awarded the Military Medal with the RFC in November 1917. During the last part of World War I he was undergoing training in England as a Pilot in Sopwith Camels aircraft. As of September 1919 he was a 2nd Lt. A notation on his Medal card noted he was awarded the "British War Medal" and British "Victory Medal". History of World War 2 aviation with accounts of combat missions, the great air feats, and the exploits of the major aces. This story rings with the names of the men who flew mission after mission into History--Johnnie Johnson of England, Russia's Kozhedub, Jimmie Doolittle-and the deadly bombers that wrought destruction in both theaters--the Boeing B-17, the Douglas B-19, the Mitsubishi OB-97. Here, in all their horror and surprise, are air attacks from Pearl Harbor to Nagasaki.
