ENGAGING WORLD WAR II STORIES

Welcome to the website for author Paul Sailer's books: The Oranges are Sweet: Major Don M. Beerbower and the 353rd Fighter Squadron - November 1942 to August 1944, and I Had a Comrade: Stories about the bravery, comradeship, and commitment of individual participants in the Second World War.


History is not dull when it contains engaging, in-depth, true stories about the fascinating young people of the war years. There is much we can learn from them.

Loden Books is pleased to offer a commemorative edition of The Oranges are Sweet, a publication that commemorates the 75th anniversary of Major Don Beerbower's tragic loss of life in 1944.

Award

Chairman Tom Schellinger, a retired Northwest Orient Airlines captain, said of Sailer’s book about Minnesota’s highest scoring fighter pilot in World War II, “The Oranges are Sweet is a wonderful reliving of the life of Major Don M. Beerbower. . . . ​It goes far beyond the combat aspect of the war and delves into the human aspect of just what goes into making a true patriot.”
