Beschreibung
Flak over the target only stopped-or slowed-when Nazi fighter planes attacked the bombers of the 8th Air Force in World War II. Flak was anti-aircraft fire, and some 8th AF airmen hated it worse than fighters- "You can fight back against the fighters," they said, "but not the flak; we're just sitting ducks." Like many others, Lt. Frank Farr, B-17 navigator, experienced both and fell victim to both. "Flak Happy" tells the story of his sixteen and a half bombing missions over Nazi Germany. And it describes the mind-numbing consequences of flying repeatedly through that flak and how he and others dealt with them.

Über den Autor
Starting as an executive trainee in 1961, Frank moved up through the ranks to become the youngest director of Fine Fare Supermarkets, a $2 billion company. In 1974, as senior vice-president of Tamblyn Drugmarts, he was instrumental in turning around this money-losing subsidiary of Weston Companies. In 1978 Frank joined 7-Eleven as Canadian division manager. Consistent improvement in sales and profits led to Frank's appointment first as vice-president/general manager and then as president of Southland Canada Inc., developing 7-Eleven into a major Canadian retail success story.

After his retirement from Southland, Frank began traveling the world as a consultant and as senior international advisor for the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), providing consulting advice to entrepreneurs in Moldova, Armenia, Republic of Georgia, Kosovo, and Ukraine.

Frank, his wife Ann, and his daughter Paula live in Surrey, B.C.
