combat log
Prideful news from across the pond
2 years ago I compiled all of my fathers combat photos,
his flight log during combat, and those of his bomber crew into a bound
book. You see my dad was a B-24 Liberator pilot serving in
the European Theater with the Mighty Eighth Air Force.
For many years I have collected bits and pieces from my dad’s
time in this great conflict. After finally finishing this volume I presented
it to the 2nd Air Division Memorial Library in Norwich, England.
This act made me a very proud son.
Well last week I received a request for 2 more copies.
It seems this combat log is one of the more popular items in the library
and they need a copy that travels on loan and copies that stay in the library.
Once again a proud son.
