One of the guys that makes you “button poppin’” proud to be an American. RIP uncle wiggle wings.
My wife just told me they called him Onkel Wackelfluegel - Uncle Wiggle Wings. My German Father-in-law, on the day we had the speech and toast that allowed me to use ‘Du’ instead of ‘Sie’ with them, spoke at great length how grateful they were for the Airlift and for the Candy Bomber.
