My Dad flew in a B17 called the Flying Virgin in Germany during the war, he was an engineer gunner flying in the top turret behind the pilots, the day they got shot down the morning before the flight the bottom turret gunner got frighten of flying in the bottom turret and he and Dad switched turrets and during getting shot down the fellow that switched positions with Dad was killed. They then spent 1 1/2 years in the prison camp. I have drawings and poems these guys did while in the camp. Greatest generation that have ever lived!
