  • great video i just wish my grandfather who was the best grandfather anyone could ask for was still around to see these videos he was a belly gunner in b24 flying fortress i just wish i would have written done what he told me about his time in the war i do remember that he lied about his age and signed up at 17 and was doing bombing runs before he was 18 very brave for a boy who had spent his whole life on a farm its been 12 years hes been gone and i still think of him every day imiss you pop al

  • My admiration for all the pilots who flew the B17 and especially for those who gave their lives to shorten the war

  • I don't live to far from Podington, and even closer to that of RAF Tempsford and Bassingbourne. Your videos really interest me. You say it's from The Doc Furniss War. Where would I be able to get this from. As I have alot of admire and proudness of our vets from then. My Gt Gt Uncle was a Hawker Hurricane Pilot, and my grandad was Chief Stoker on HMS Medway. So have alot to thank these lads for keeping England and the US free from madmen. Many thanks for these vids.

  • Great short video of an aircraft that helped bring freedom to Europe. God bless all who served in WWII ( "The Big One" as my dad and many of his fellow servicemen called it), especially those who didn't return. Our WWII and Korean War Vets are fewer in number each year. If you see one, thank him or her for their service.

  • My Grandpa piloted 33 missions over Germany and occupied France from Jan-May of 1945. He was with the 384th Bomb Group, 545 Squadron. Short landed twice in Belgium after taking flak but never lost a crew member. His first mission as a true pilot was fire-bombing Dresden, Germany. Welcome to the war I guess.
