The Night A Fortress Fell To Fairfield: (Revised Addition) - Paperback
by Claudia Hagen (Author)
On February 3, 1943, while on a routine ferrying flight from Great Falls, Montana to Ephrata, Washington, a massive B-17 Flying Fortress tangled with an unexpected blizzard. The Blizzard won. Dubbed the Fairfield Fortress, the bomber crashed its way into the lives of its flight crew, a farm family, and a small wheat farming town. The Night A Fortress Fell To Fairfield relives that cold stormy night and the memories that have survived. This true story was just a tiny incident within a nation at war, but left an enduring mark on all involved.
The revised addition of "The Night A Fortress Fell To Fairfield" is author Claudia Hagen's fifth non-fiction book. "Tonight We Fly! The Soviet Night Witches of WWII," "American Women During WWII," "Hanford's Secret Clouds of Despair," "The Mystic High Adventures of Fannie Flame & Crew" along with two children's books, "Our Grandma Flies A Hot Air Balloon," and "Keely The Rescued Kitty" are her previous works. After thirty-six years as a critical care nurse and twelve years as a commercially rated hot air balloon pilot, Claudia is now retired and living in California's Central Valley.
