Yeah - there’s a lot of brave folks still living -getting fewer by the day.

My dad stayed stateside in the service - he wrote the manual for the M-1 rifle. When I found it in his things after he died, I almost threw it out, then realized what I was holding.

Hubby’s uncle was a bombadier in Europe - MANY pictures he wasn’t supposed to take are in family albums.

Your screen name made me think of this B25 named The Yellow Rose. I saw this airplane & met the pilot at the Belle Chase air show in Louisiana.
