Phil,
Don't know if he was in involved in Bastogne, but mentioned picture appears under heading "Glider Pilot Pictures". Regards, Leendert |
Re: looking for info on US glider pilot market garden bastogne ?301St,441 St
so if that picture apears under glider pilots i suppose that he was a glider pilot ( WACO)?
