My father exited a C-46, landed south of St. Mere Eglise (not spelled correctly) he would have been 95 yesterday. Jumped into and fought in Holland, then was surrounded in Bastonge. His jump wings had 3 or 4 stars, can't remember how many now.EH, AG is just trying to give me shit. I am not old enough to storm the beaches. I am not old enough to walk the rice paddies.
So P-Money, I commend you, for the guts you have, when the landing craft ramp dropped, or exiting the aircraft. There are not many of us old soldiers left. Originally Posted by eaglehorse
