I collect stories of veterans and use them in an AAF exhibition I take on the road, when work and fnds allow. Folks always appreciate us so we must be doing something right.

Was he based in the ETO?

Hey, you flew right over my house! :D

wow what a ride

I`m from Argentina and I´ve never had the oportunity of being with a plane of the WWII.I really love that kind of planes.I´m pilot and I fly a PA-18 but I prefer flying that amazing plane.

When the "Witchcraft" came to Waukegan Regional for a show, they were kind enough to let my grandfather co-pilot the plane because that is what he did on many missions in WW2. The ol man teared up. God bless his resting soul, he was so happy flying that bird for one last time.

Was he based in the ETO?

Geez, I'm not sure of the details Wingdoss, I would have to ask my pop. He knows all the nitty gritty of gramp's war stories, where he was, what he did, and such.

The reason why I asked is that I run a mobile AAF exhibition over here in the U.K which tours museums and old bases when work and funds permit. So when I see opportunities to share information with folks such as yourself I tend to leave a comment. I'd certainly appreciate any information that you'd care to share, when you had the time.
