Much has been written about the U.S. Army Air Corps in World War II, but the contributions of each aircrew member to that effort have been largely neglected. Also, the importance of the unity of the crew has not been sufficiently emphasized. 
BLOODY SKIES is the story of a Fifteenth Air Force, Second Bomb Group (H), Twentieth Squadron, B-17 crew that often flew the notorious "Old Flak Holes," and how they learned to respect and trust each other. Training made them cohesive, crisis and tragedy bonded them. 
They arrived at Amendola, Italy, on the day their entire squadron, the Twentieth, and others of the Second Bomb Group, had been wiped out by the Luftwaffe. That legacy was their introduction to war. 
Through McGuuire and Hadley the reader will watch these enthusiastic, bright-eyed, cocky boys lose that brightness and confidence. when fatigue and weariness became so overpowering and seem to go deep into the bones, it is only their pride in themselves, their crew, and their country that keeps them returning to the skies to face another day of that dreaded flak and German fighters. There appeared to be no way to survive. 
In the midst of the horrors of aerial combat, they can still find humor living in the 'Amendola Ritz,' compassion for those innocent victims of every war--the children, marvel in the early morning song of a bird, and enjoy the historical sights of Rome. 
These ten men, from the economic, cultural, and geographic spectrum of 1940s America, were representative of the best their country had to offer. They vehemently deny any claim to hero status. The Soldier's Prayer was their credo: 
Let me fight well today, O Lord, 
Let me do nothing to bring shame or disgrace on my
family, my comrades, my unit, my country. 
Let me conduct myself in such a manner that there
is no dishonor. 
Let me not be wasted, but if I die, let me die like
a soldier should.

"On A Mountainside" combines scrupulous attention to historical accuracy with an intimate and personal writing style that takes the story deeper than conventional works of history. 
The story of Doyle Decker, Bob Mailheau, and the men who shared their struggle to survive in the jungles of Luzon is a story that needs to be told. And Malcolm Decker has found just the right way to tell it, with the feel of living fiction. 
While the hero of this story, Doyle Decker, always denied he was a hero, "On A Mountainside" makes it clear that this young soldier, battling the Japanese and jungles of Luzon, embodies the strength, courage, loyalty and humility that give us all something to admire. The book tells a compelling story, and it celebrates the humanity of these "ordinary" men. 
One quality that makes this book different from many stories of WWII is the close relationship that the American guerrillas formed with the Negritos--the indigenous people of the Philippines with whom they worked to help drive out the invaders
