    if you were in today's 18-21 yr. age group, would you be willing to fly in one of these under actual combat conditions?

    the former prez. of our local bank was a state wrestling champ. just a little guy.

    he also fit into a ball turret of a B-24.

    he used to say: "it wasn't so bad until they started shooting at you" !

    he was in his mid-90's when he finally got his wings!
