  • Amazing video, if only more people could realize just how amazing things from our past are.

  • The "Mighty 8th" USAAF became my intellectual hobby after an experience with the Colling's Foundation, "Nine-O-Nine" a number of years ago.

    I have since visited 10 of their former airfields in the UK, and the spiritual vibes one gets when strolling those old runways cannot be described. I heartily commend you on a superb historical production. Let these incredibly brave, great men of the USAAF never be forgotten.
