Editor's Note
Based on the real-life experiences of Lt. Col. Gregory "Pappy" Boyington, BAA BAA BLACK SHEEP was one of the earliest television series created by celebrated producer Stephen J. Cannell (THE A-TEAM). The series centers on Boyington and his team of fighter pilots stationed on a Pacific island during the Second World War. Boyington not only sends his group of pilots on assorted missions, but must also keep order in the ragtag group while they remain on the base. Volume two features the second half of the series' action-packed first season.
