The average bomber crew member was in his early twenties. As in 21 to 25 on up. Not teenagers but still--what were you doing at 22 years old?

Certainly not what these guys were doing. Of the two men I mentioned know one was 19, the other was 18. The pilot was 21. Trust me, a great many of men fighting every where in WW2 were teenagers. A lot of them lied about their age so they could enlist.

I'm certainly not in the same class as these heroes-- I just thought it was ironic. :)
