    Dog Tags as an accessory...(advice please)

    After seeing the image above. I decided to look into Gene West's history, just for curiousity's sake (he is from my current home state.) I found that he was born in 1922 and resided in Harrison County, West Virginia. After just one year of high school he enlisted for service in the Phillipines...

    Roger Freeman passed away on October 7.

I had the pleasure of briefly meeting him in Savannah, GA while I was attending the 20th Fighter Group reunion. He was just arriving for the 8th Air Force reunion, which was to start the next day...

I was hoping maybe those were taken at King's Cliffe, which was where the band's last airfield hangar performance with...

    WWII Eccentric Heroes

    I'd have to go with Maj. Jack M. Ilfrey, C.O. of the 79th Fighter Squadron and one of the first aces in P-38s. He was not only a great pilot and leader, he was a master at ignoring military regulations to do what was right.

    WWII Photos (and Stories) of Our Loved Ones

    While my area of primary interest is the World War II era, no one in my family served at that time. My father was a career Marine, did two tours of duty in Vietnam and was wounded in combat. He retired as a Captain after serving over 25 years. This is a photo of him just a few hours after...

    Remember Dec 7th!

    Hello, I'm new here. I found this forum kind of by accident and have learned a lot just by browsing through many of the posts. I'm a 42 year-old graphic artist and historical researcher as well as a major WWII buff. This Pearl Harbor thread brought to mind the story of a man I researched for...
