HELL IS SO GREEN: SEARCH AND RESCUE OVER THE HUMP IN WORLD WAR II

Book ID/图书代码: 05170011B45699

English Summary/英文概要: Lt. William Diebold served in the Army’s Air Transport Command in the China-Burma-India theater of World War II and never fired a weapon in battle. Like many men who flew the Hump, he never saw on-the-ground combat, but he fought bravely by saving lives. Flyers who crossed the eastern Himalayas to keep the allied armies in China supplied with food, fuel, and weapons against Japan—preventing it from concentrating its power in the Pacific—often flew in zero-visibility, sometimes crashing into mountains or falling from the sky from Japanese Zero attacks. Those pilots who survived, Bill Diebold rescued.
In Hell Is So Green, Diebold vividly describes the heat and stink of the jungle; the vermin, lice, and leeches; the towering mountains and roaring rivers. Rich with war slang, wisecracks, and old-fashioned phrases, his story reverberates with authenticity and represents the stories of many men that have never been told. After the author’s early death, the manuscript was put away in an attic—until now. Here, from the shadows of that attic, comes a compelling story of courage under fire and heroism for the ages.

Chinese Summary/中文概要: 二战期间,威廉•迪博尔德中将在缅甸战区担任陆军航空运输司令官,他从未在战争中使用过武器。和每个曾经飞越过驼峰的男人一样,他也从未见过地面作战模式,但他却勇敢的在枪林弹雨的战斗中拯救生命。飞行员们飞越过喜马拉雅山的东部持续的为在中国战场上与盟军日本作战的人们供应食物、燃料和武器。为了阻止盟军的战斗力量集中在太平洋上,飞行员们通常都要在零能见度的领域内飞行,但因此他们很容易撞上山脉或是受到来自日军的攻击,比尔•迪博尔德就救援那些在攻击中幸存下来的飞行员。

迪博尔德生动的描述了丛林中的炎热、腐臭、寄生虫、虱子与水蛭以及高耸的群山与咆哮的河流。书中运用了大量的战争俚语、俏皮的言辞以及旧时的流行语。小说的字里行间回荡着不可辨驳的真实性,它诉说着那些在战争中发生的可歌可泣、不为人知的故事。随着作者的不幸早逝,该书的原版手稿一直被搁置在作者生前的阁楼中。直至今日,这个来自于阁楼阴影中的精彩故事,才将那个时代战争与英雄的传奇流传开来。(兼职翻译-YZH)
