"The Men Who Were There"

During our Museum reunion last June, five of our veterans relayed their experiences of the war in a two hour tape recording now available in VHS form.

 The five speakers were:

Bill Pennebaker, 44 Missions, original crew, with almost all as Command Pilot. A real survivor.

Andy Anzanos, Engineer/TT, 26 missions, Nov. 1943 through March 1944. Survived combat to be shot down by friendly fire.

John Warner, Co-pilot, 35 Missions, including surviving a catastrophe and escaping on one engine.

Richard Bushong, Co-pilot and Pilot, 28 missions, starting Dec. 1943. His survival of numerous catastrophes is astounding. Later he became a test pilot.

“Ben” Bennett Pilot of “Squawkin Chicken”, sole squadron survivor on his second mission with the 384th Bomb Group. His humor comes through on this tape to further make a treasured item.

Presentation of 67 photos of Nose Art from the 390th Bomb Group assigned aircraft. Includes missions flown, the casualties and the final fate of the aircraft.

Presentation is in Microsoft Power Point requiring Windows 95 or better. The CD disc includes Power Point Viewer for those without Power Point program.
