Description: A voice broke over the intercom. "Pilot to gunners. Keep your eyes open. We're almost to target. By now every German fighter in the area knows where to find us." In 1943, nineteen-year-old Jim Yoder serves as a waist gunner aboard a B-24 in the United States Army Air Corps, but through a strange chain of events, is trapped behind enemy lines in Hitler's Europe, alone, on foot, and on the run, and finds himself returning to his family's staunchly pacifist Mennonite roots. World War II has taken nineteen-year-old Jim Yoder far away from his home, his country, and his pretty friend Margo. But when he finds himself running for his life across Nazi Germany, Jim discovers that to survive, he will have to trust the God he once rejected. Full of excitement, danger, and realistic details about World War II Europe, Gunner's Run is sure to captivate young and old alike. - Publisher.
