I just wonder how they did it - knowing every time they went out the odds were they wouldnt be back. It gives me chills thinking about it.

Humbled and so thankful. Breathing the good air because of them and others like them.

Thanks for the posts. It's very humbling. There's lots of videos on YouTube also. It's not for the faint-hearted. Those guys truly gave their all for their country.

My grandfather made it 23 and a half missions in 1942. His B-17 was shot down over Germany. He and one other spent the next 3 years as guest of the 3rd Reich (has he used to say).
