His engaging memoir,And the Angels Sing: Stories of a World War II Pilot, provides a vivid,detailed glimpse into Tuttle’s life.Growing up in Johnson Creek, Wisconsin, Tuttle has his share ofadventures, from being relentlessly pursued by a pretty girl tocausing a beer truck to tip over. While serving in the OconomowocWisconsin National Guard Company, Tuttle faces increasingfrustration with the military, stemming from an incident when hisfather was in the service. Later he faces the daunting experience ofhitchhiking through Middle America at a time when the Army doesn’tprovide food or travel allowance for soldiers on leave-and duringthis time has the privilege of being a member of one big, UnitedStates family. While in the Central Pacific Theater, he is involved inthe capture of a Japanese flag-with an airplane.If you want to slow down, don’t ever retire.
