Thanks for posting up the B-52 link.It was real sweet having my little niece the nurse text me this link tonight of the B-52 on a low/fast pass....enjoy. http://worldwarwings.com/this-b-52-...hills-down-your-spine?a=mk&var=ww2=b52-buzzzz
As y'all may recall: I work at a funeral home a pre-arrange funerals for those planning their final needs. I had the distinct privilege yesterday to visit with an 82-year-old, 24-year USAF veteran. He served his entire career as a B-52 Tail Gunner. He flew hundreds of missions during both the Korean and Vietnam Wars.
For what we did for him "professionally", our visit should have taken 45 minutes to an hour. However, thanks to his many war stories our visit was a very enjoyable 2 hours, 45 minutes. It is a real joy and honor to serve those who served and to be a good listener. I'm not sure who got more out of the stories. But I am enriched for knowing him.
