John Dunning Quote

Eyes Aloft was the result of an appeal by the Army to help bolster the Aircraft Warning System on the West Coast, where fear of a Japanese attack was widespread in the months following Pearl Harbor. But the initial heat of the Japanese attack had begun to subside, and reports of enemy submarine sightings off the West Coast had diminished; the numbers of volunteers had accordingly dropped. Eyes Aloft told of lonely sky-watchers in mountain outposts and sentinels watching the sea from coastal pillboxes.
