Whenever that old Jimmy Buffett song comes up on my ipod, it will now have another meaning for me. Jimmy was singing about his sea Captain Grandfather. I'll be thinking of my Uncle Gordon, my dad's "baby brother". who was a B-17 Captain.
The internet pretty amazing...a search took me to this on a Brit air museum site, including the name of his plane. Capt'n and his kids. Gives me a hint that his crew must have thought highly of him, since so many had nose art and names with hot women.
Gordon was one of those who I never heard speak of the war, so I'm glad I found this:
