Praise
Praise for Beyond the Call
“An untold story from those last days of WWII in Europe when the unthinkable became real—when our ally had turned against us, when our POWs were left to die, and when a veteran pilot would receive a harrowing final mission—to fly against the might of the Soviet Union.”—Adam Makos, New York Times bestselling author of A Higher Call
“Vivid and engaging, Beyond the Call is partly a story of one officer’s guile and bravery in the face of forces much larger and more powerful than himself. But it is also a moving and appalling tale of the full horror of World War II’s last year on the eastern front.”—Randall Hansen, author of Fire and Fury and Disobeying Hitler
“Beyond the Call is the brilliantly told, fast-paced true story of a remarkable young man. Nerve-wracking, informative, yet profoundly moving, Beyond the Call is a truly inspiring book.”—Susan Ottaway, author of Sisters, Secrets, and Sacrifice
“A little-known set of moving adventures, well-researched and presented.”—Kirkus Reviews
“Trimble’s son has provided a riveting, tense, and ultimately satisfying account of his father’s heroic effort.”—Booklist
“This account delivers a different story from the norm…a remarkable (and virtually unknown) story of courage in the face of incredible danger.”—Library Journal
“A brilliantly told story of a true unsung hero.”—History of War Magazine
