A WINDOW IN TIME.... is the story of a B-24 bomber crew that formed up at Mountain Home Air Base, Idaho, in 1944; shipped over to England where they were stationed at Seething Air Base; flew the first combat mission to Eurskirchen, Germany on Christmas Eve 1944; got shot down exactly three months later while bombing a target near Hamburg; were held prisoners and repatriated at war's end and reunited at a 50th anniversary reunion celebration set up by a German who saw the bomber crash while he was serving in the Hitler youth Corps.
