Wow...
I was sitting at a stoplight on Saturday here in Denver.
A B-17 flew right over my head (targa). So one of them was here.
A good older friend was a crewmember of a B-17 in WWII... Was shot down (flak). A family hid him in their barn for a few days but he finally realized that if he was found, the Germans would kill the whole family; so he left during the night.
He was captured a couple days later, prison camp for a couple years.
A few years ago he went back to Germany and visited the family that hid him they were thrilled to see him.
