Baa Baa Black Sheep is the gritty, firsthand autobiography of Marine Corps fighter ace Colonel Gregory "Pappy" Boyington, detailing his leadership of the infamous VMF-214 squadron during World War II. After flying as a mercenary with the Flying Tigers in China, the hard-drinking, anti-authority Boyington assembled a ragtag group of unattached pilots, transforms them into a legendary, record-breaking combat unit in the Pacific, and survives over a year of brutal treatment in a secret Japanese prisoner-of-war camp.
