World War II US Marines Pilot -- a Worthwhile Remembrance

[ChrisGeorge]

Great article Chris, thanks!

I can also highly recommend a visit to Duxford Air Museum, posted earlier. Some of the planes are taken out on a daily basis. There's an old passenger plane with corregated sides [almost like an early 2CV car] that you can pay to go up in for a few loops around the air field.

Thanks, Dazza. It was a pleasure some years ago to go to the same Smithsonian Air and Space Museum described in Caryn's essay, just a few streets from me as I write, with my mother's cousin, Kenneth W. Matchett and his wife. He was trained as an RAF fighter pilot in Texas and was able to see the World War II craft he knew.
