Night Madness is the true-life story of an RCAF  tail -gunner's 35 odds-defying missions over war-torn Germany during WWII. Despite skies dark with Messerschmitts and flak from anti-aircraft fire, he would make it through the war intact, only to face a new battle with Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome caused by memoires of the raids and participation in the now-controversial bombing of Dresden.
 
Based on letters, interviews and painstaking archival research, author Rick Pyves weaves together a fascinating and harrowing adventure of a bombing crew over hostile German skies and captures all the youth, bravado and honest fear of the young men fighting for home and freedom. Night Madness also looks at the impact of war on the youth who served overseas including the difficulties for combat personnel suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome.
