My favorite movies with her are Strategic Air Command and The McConnell Story. (I'm an airplane nut in case anyone didn't know.)

Oh, I forgot the McConnell Story. Loved that, too - and The Stratton Story - even the Glenn Miller Story. Guess I'm a biography freak or something. I just like people's life stories - and June Allyson was the quintessential wife!
Strategic Air Command, one of my favorite movies of all time. I saw it with my Dad when it first came out. We went to the dedication of Joe Foss Field in Sioux Falls, SD and witnessed a flyover of a squadron (?) of B-36 Peacemakers from Ellsworth AFB near Rapid City. They couldn't have a static display because the runway was too short. I never will forget the sound of all those big B-36 bombers flying overhead at low altitude.
Does anyone remember the movie in which Jimmy Stewart was a brilliant, scientific widowed father, and June Alison came along to set things right in his world?
It had Gloria Swanson in it; and she was supposed to head for the head when the tail fell off of the airplane.
I loved that one.
