I don't know. I think on the web I can get information about every mission my father flew on -- who was in the crew, what they were carrying, when the were scheduled to take off, etc., etc. My father was awarded a couple of medals. I thought nothing of it -- until my newly discovered nephew sent me an article written by the tail gunner on his crew, recounting his experience from enlistment to discharge. There were some pretty dramatic details of their combat experience. Now I wonder what those medals were for. I'll bet I find out. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Eric Weir Decatur, GA USA [email protected] -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
