Re: Source of some 'apocryphal' 8th AF stories..
Nick - the quote and incident of signing was real Re "Who's afraid of the Fock Wulf"
Tex McCrary wrote about it in First of the Many published in 1944. He didn't name the group because of wartime censorship but he spent a lot of time around the 91st, 94th, the 305th and 100th BG so the probabbility is high(er) that he picked it up in one of those groups.. it preceeded Caiden by a looooooong time. If you have not read this one - I HIGHLY recommend it as a penetrating insight/human interest stories about the 8th in the early to late 1943 timeframe Regards, Bill
