All those men had courage and fortitude. They are a credit to our Nation, and are true heroes. God bless them all.
My father served with the 8th Air Force.

My father-in-law flew 32 times over hostile territories in the ball turret of a B 17. He got credited for 51 missions and sent home the moment he touched down from his final flight.
