Wow. Thanks Snippy.
Amazing how these guys kept quiet about this stuff after the War. When I was 17, I learned my next door neighbor had been a waist gunner in a B-17. I only learned that because the county newpaper did a story about him going to Romania to visit the family that had hid him from the Germans 40 years before.
Neat story about your neighbor. This story was posted by Sam originally before he started the Foxhole. I swiped it. :-)
