I remember him from the program. R.I.P.
In the film, did he save some American soldiers on the ground by strafing some Germans that were sure to kill them, and he didn’t know who the Americans were, and many years later he was conversing with someone and they got onto the subject of the war, and one of them mentioned the incident, and they both realized that Aanenson was the pilot and he was one of the guys on the ground?
If that’s the film, I’ll tell you it was an incredible film. The pilot (Aanenson?) did more dangerous, heroic stuff than you can imagine. It was not a touchie feelie, how-bad-war-is film. Somehow they got a lot of footage of this guy in action.
