The 359th Fighter Group was formed in September 1943 at RAF Bottisham in England. The group was made up of three fighter squadrons: the 334th, 335th, and 336th Fighter Squadrons. The group's pilots flew the P-47 Thunderbolt, one of the most powerful fighter aircraft of the war.

The 359th Fighter Group saw its first combat in December 1943, when it flew escort missions for bombers attacking targets in Germany. The group quickly gained a reputation for its skill and courage, and it soon became one of the most feared fighter groups in the Luftwaffe.

The 359th Fighter Group flew over 1,000 combat missions during World War II, and its pilots claimed over 300 enemy aircraft shot down. The group also participated in some of the most important air battles of the war, including the Battle of the Bulge and the Battle of Berlin.

Manifest Spirit is the story of the 359th Fighter Group, but it is also the story of the men who served in the group. The book tells the stories of the pilots, the ground crew, and the support personnel who made the group so successful. Manifest Spirit is a tribute to the courage and sacrifice of these men, and it is a reminder of the importance of air power in modern warfare.

Manifest Spirit is a must-read for anyone interested in World War II aviation history or the history of the United States Air Force. The book is written by award-winning author and historian Dr. James Holland, and it is based on extensive research, including interviews with surviving members of the group. Manifest Spirit is a well-written and engaging book that will appeal to a wide range of readers.
