Very cool. My dad was an Electrical Specialist and worked on B25’s and P47’s etc.. in the China-Burma Theater. He is still with us at 92.

Bless him. My dad passed 20 years ago; he was a grocery clerk in Illinois when Pearl Harbor was bombed and tried to enlist, but his eyesight was too bad. Six months later, he tried again and his eyesight had miraculously improved! His Army Air Force training taught him circuitry and his career was with Idaho Power, designing remote control systems for hydro dams.
