We Are Of Clay: Letters And Random Jottings Of Chick Rainear, P-38 Pilot, Who Did His Job, Yet Wondered is a collection of letters and personal reflections from Charles Joseph Rainear, also known as Chick, who served as a P-38 pilot during World War II. The book provides a unique glimpse into the experiences of a young man who was thrust into the chaos and violence of war, yet managed to maintain his humanity and sense of wonder amidst the destruction. Through his letters home and personal musings, Rainear shares his thoughts on everything from the thrill of flying to the horrors of combat and the toll it takes on the human psyche. He also reflects on his own mortality and the fragility of life, as well as his hopes and dreams for the future. Overall, We Are Of Clay offers a moving and insightful portrait of a brave and thoughtful young man who faced unimaginable challenges with courage and grace.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
