The last episode of Black Sheep Chronicles: VMF-214 in World War II is now on YouTube. Last year Gamble announced (HERE) a new and exciting series of episodes about the famed Black Sheep Squadron (VMF-214). Gamble published his first book, The Black Sheep, in 1998, a highly readable account that serves to both correct and extend the record of the VMF-214 and its renowned squadron leader Greg “Pappy” Boyington. With a total of four titles now in print, Bruce is recognized as one of the top authors on the air war in the Pacific.
Produced by Skywarrior Media, this is the final episode in the series created by author and historian Bruce Gamble. It begins with the repatriation of Boyington from a Japanese POW camp at the end of World War II, and follows the remainder of his rollercoaster life as he receives the Medal of Honor, struggles with relationships and alcohol addiction, writes a best-selling autobiography, and inspires a popular TV series. Video clips of his interviews and TV appearances are among the highlights of this final episode.
