Lt. Col. Robert E. "Pappy" Haynes,
Haynes was a veteran bomber pilot of the ETO winning the DFC in 1943. He had served in the RCAF from 1939 before joining the USAAF. Can anyone give me details of his service and his pre-war career. He had been a pilot since 1927 therefore I assume he was an airline pilot.
He later became a B-29 airplane commander in the Pacific 1944-1945. regards Keith |
