Welcome to the forum. And thank you for making that website.

My Uncle was killed in the pacific in the crash of his B-17 in 1943. My mother had only the information that she was told as a child about what happened to her brother. A year or so ago I did a Google search on his name and found some info. It ultimately led me to a site that identified his plane, all the crew members and what happened. When I told my Mom about the information I had found, she said it wasn’t correct because “She was told” (back in the day). I explained to her that some of the information was written by one of the two crew members that survived the crash. She wanted me to “print that website” . So now I’m in the process of trying to remotely teach her how to use that website to get info.

Sites like yours fill in the blanks for a lot of people, and give information to the young folks that want to know what really happened. Thank you.

TripleGGG, thank you sir.

DaveTN, thank you, I love hearing those family stories and seeing the information come to light.  That has always been the purpose of my private collection, to honor these men and tell their stories.  Everything on the site is in my collection and exists to keep the memory of their sacrifice and service alive.
