Frank Murphy became one of the few survivors of the 100th Bombardment Group, nicknamed The Bloody Hundredth. During the war, Murphy was stationed in England where he flew 21 combat missions. Shot out of his B-17 on his 21st mission, he was captured and survived 19 months as a German POW. 20 years ago, he first wrote his memoir for his family. Now, his daughter, Elizabeth, and granddaughter, Chloe, have republished Murphy’s memoir so that they can share his story and legacy with readers today.
