[QUOTE="black4vcobra, post: 15887528, member: 82394"] He sure was. During a bombing raid on a fuel plant over Politz Germany they took AA fire and decided to fly their wounded B24 across the Baltic sea to Sweden where they crash landed. The crew spent 5 months interned in Sweden. It was pretty cushy there though as they got to leave the internment camp once the chores were done! Men of that era definitely earned the moniker of belonging to the greatest generation. I'm glad you got to know your gramps and hear his stories as I know I greatly enjoyed hearing stories from my gramps. Mistah Chick B24 after crash landing. [ATTACH=full]1483015[/ATTACH] Kneeling on the left as part of an earlier B24 crew. [ATTACH=full]1483016[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
