Another of our World War II airman gone. Very sad. My father, who piloted B-17s is now 81. He's doing OK, but I know I won't have him with me forever. We are losing that generation at an accellerating pace.

I know a geologist in town who is in his eighties and was a B-17 pilot whose plane went down and was a POW in Germany.

My dad is a WWII pilot too, he's 82 and failing also. I found a neat Christmas present for him here.

Check it out
