I got close to the B-17 Sentimental Journey the Confederate Air Force has in Texas. Bette Grable on the nose. A great plane and great crew. A guy I worked with was a navigator on one like it in WWII. The crew took him for a ride before they left the air show. I sat and watched it leave and listened to the engines.
RIP Lawrence. Loved the sound of those engines.
Thanks for your memory at post # 11.
