The riveting history of the American Eighth Air Force in World War II and the young men who flew the bombers that helped beat the Nazis and liberate Europe, brilliantly told by historian and World War II expert Donald L. Miller. The Masters of the Air streaming series stars Austin Butler and Callum Turner, and is produced by Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg, the legendary duo behind Band of Brothers and The Pacific.

Masters of the Air is the deeply personal story of the American bomber boys in World War II who brought the war to Hitler’s doorstep. With the narrative power of fiction, Donald Miller takes you on a harrowing ride through the fire-filled skies over Berlin, Hanover, and Dresden and describes the terrible cost of bombing for the German people. Masters of the Air is the deeply personal story of the American bomber boys in World War II who brought the war to Hitler’s doorstep. With the narrative power of fiction, Donald Miller takes you on a harrowing ride through the fire-filled skies over Berlin, Hanover, and Dresden and describes the terrible cost of bombing for the German people.

Fighting at 25,000 feet in thin, freezing air that no warriors had ever encountered before, bomber crews battled new kinds of assaults on body and mind. Air combat was deadly but intermittent: periods of inactivity and anxiety were followed by short bursts of fire and fear. Unlike infantrymen, bomber boys slept on clean sheets, drank beer in local pubs, and danced to the swing music of Glenn Miller’s Air Force band, which toured US air bases in England. But they had a much greater chance of dying than ground soldiers.

The bomber crews were an elite group of warriors who were a microcosm of America—white America, anyway. The actor Jimmy Stewart was a bomber boy, and so was the “King of Hollywood,” Clark Gable. And the air war was filmed by Oscar-winning director William Wyler and covered by reporters like Andy Rooney and Walter Cronkite, all of whom flew combat missions with the men. The Anglo-American bombing campaign against Nazi Germany was the longest military campaign of World War II, a war within a war. Until Allied soldiers crossed into Germany in the final months of the war, it was the only battle fought inside the German homeland.

Masters of the Air is “a stunning achievement” (David McCullough), “a fresh new account” (Walter Boyne, former director of the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum) of life in wartime England and in the German prison camps, where tens of thousands of airmen spent part of the war. It ends with a vivid description of the grisly hunger marches captured airmen were forced to make near the end of the war through the country their bombs destroyed.

Drawn from recent interviews, oral histories, and American, British, German, and other archives, Masters of the Air is an authoritative, deeply moving account that “accurately and comprehensively” (Lt. Gen. Bernard E. Trainor, USMC (Ret.) and coauthor of Cobra II) tells of the world’s first and only bomber war.

Lip balm with sunscreen
Size: 0.15 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Love this balm and use it almost daily.. I buy it specifically for the sunscreen in it. It goes on smoothly with a light shine. No stickiness or feeling heavy. The tube is a nice size to hold on when using and lasts for a long time.

Refund please - I did not order and/or receive this item
Size: 0.15 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I was charged for this item, but I did not order or even received it. I have written via the "return" page my situation and requested a refund to no avail. The items is actually a great item, and I have ordered it in the past and like it. However, I'm frustrated to be billed for something I didn't order and/or even receive. I hope this results in a refund.

Solid performer lip SFP.
Size: 0.15 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I’m outside constantly. Walking and training dogs. Working in the garden. Playing pickleball. I needed a good spf lip balm that was easy to put on and did not taste perfumery or gloopy. This one is great. I LOVE the little canister that screws on and off so it doesn’t pop off in my purse. And the consistency is stable despite heat and cold.

Great Sun Protection but Texture Could Be Better
Size: 2-Pack (0.15 Ounce each)
The Dermatone Mineral Lip Balm provides really good SPF 30 protection and keeps my lips from getting sunburned during outdoor activities. I like that it’s reef safe, oxybenzone free, and made with mineral-based ingredients, which makes it feel like a healthier option compared to many other lip balms. It does a decent job moisturizing, and the compact size is convenient to carry anywhere. However, the texture feels a little thicker and waxier than I expected, especially in cooler weather. It still works well overall, but I wish it applied a bit smoother. For anyone needing reliable sun protection for their lips, this is still a solid product worth trying.
