Unlike other Scandinavian countries, Sweden maintained its
neutrality throughout the Second World War. She was therefore
able to offer sanctuary for the fighting men of all nations.
This book explores the relationship between the USAAF and
Sweden during the Second World War. Over 1,400 American airmen
landed in Sweden or in its coastal waters during the conflict.
For the majority the country offered the sole refuge when
their stricken aircraft were unable to make the return flight
to their British bases.
