Russell Allen "Phil" Phillips Timeline & Summary

Phil meets Louie and they become pilot and bombardier, respectively, of the Super Man, a B-24 bomber.
Phil's crazy-good pilot skills enable him to land the Super Man after an air fight leaves the plane in critical condition.
The crew is transferred to the Green Hornet, which is a disaster of a plane.
Speaking of disaster, the Hornet is shot and crashes into the Pacific.
Phil survives, along with Louie and Mac.
Although Mac dies, Phil and Louie make it for forty-six days, at which point they are captured by the Japanese.
After being transferred to a different POW camp, they are transferred again, and this time they are separated.
They don't see other again until after the war.
When Phil arrives home, he finally gets to marry Cecy, the love of his life, and they live happily ever after. (Seriously, they really do.)
