Summary of They Turned the War Around at Coral Sea and Midway by Stuart D. Ludlum PDF
Merriam Press Military Monograph 308. Go to war with the Yorktown's Air Group Five (VF-3, VF-42, VB-5, VT-5). Very detailed self-told experiences of American Naval Aviation pilots who fought and survived the Marshall, Gilbert, Salamaua, Lae and Tulagi raids, and the Coral Sea and Midway battles in 1942. Sources for this massive work were the pilots themselves, whom the author interviewed after their return to the States during the war, while memories were still fresh. This is an invaluable record of their experiences. Their descriptions of combat will make you feel like you are right there with them in the cockpit.
