Please ping me to your Dad’s V-Mail. My Dad did not serve. He was also born in 1913. He had 3 kids and worked in the food industry at that time.

My husband never left the states. He was a tail gunner on a B17. When the bombs were dropped on Japan, he was a right scanner on a B29 preparing to head for the South Pacific.

I hope you didn't marry until after the war. I have heard of child brides but in your case it would have been literal.

By the way, what is a scanner? My uncle was navigator on a B-17 but I am not familiar with that job classification.

Will do. They will start appearing promptly in April 2013, so don't wander too far from your computer.
