In Rocky Boyer’s War, writer and historian Allen Boyer offers a keen-eyed, disgruntled history of the air war in the Pacific – drawing on an unauthorized diary kept by his father, Lt. Roscoe “Rocky” Boyer. Diaries were forbidden, but Rocky kept one—full of casualties, accidents, off-duty shenanigans, and rear-area snafus. He had friends killed when they shot it out with Japanese anti-aircraft gunners, or when their bombers vanished in bad weather. He wrote about camp life at Nadzab, New Guinea, the largest air base in the world, part Scout camp and part frontier boomtown. Allen Boyer is a lawyer, writer, and historian. He has reviewed books for the New York Times and run investigations for the New York Stock Exchange. The book will be available for purchase and autographing following the presentation. This is sponsored by the Needham Free Public Library.
