Question

Write a review of Night Witches, the female Russian Bomber pilots of the 588th Night Regiment, stressing on the courage and intelligence of women pilots during the war.

Answer 1

It was the spring of 1943, at the height of World War II. Two pilots, members of the Soviet Air Force, were flying their planes—Polikarpov Po-2 biplanes, built mainly of plywood and canvas—over a Soviet railway junction. Their passage was on its way to being a routine patrol ... until the pilots found themselves confronted by a collection of German bombers. Forty-two of them.
