My father was Army Air Force in the second war. He was stationed at Christchurch until D Day. He crewed bombers and thought the world of the British fliers and crews. He’s gone now or I would love to give him this article.

Wow. 55 missions as a rear gunner??? You use us a lot of luck doing that just once. May you fly with the angels once again.

"He had a very hard start to life and did well to overcome that."

You can't get a much better epitaph (sp?) than that for your gravestone.

I’m reading a book by Ernie Pyle - “This Is Your War” and am just now in the part dealing with what a hard time the pilots in WWII had. - Those who served in WWII paid such a high price and we owe them so much.
