Showing The Victors by Jack Cavanaugh

In the darkest days of World War II, four messengers arrive at the Morgan house in San Diego, one after the other. Just like in the Old Testament account of Job, each messenger bears bad news regarding Johnny and Laura Morgan’s four children—Walt, a B-17 pilot in England; Alexandra, one of a chosen few female pilots; Nat, an army photographer in Europe; and Lily, a big band singer touring battlefields in Italy. In one afternoon the Morgans face the possible extinction of an entire generation and the end of the Morgan spiritual heritage in America.
