I agree. The history stuff is interesting but highly speculative to say
the least. Sorting it out can try your patience for sure. I remember
Bader telling me about one "historian" who cornered him one evening and
proceeded to TELL him about an air battle he had been in personally.
When Bader tried to correct the man on a certain detail he personally
had experienced, the "historian" argued with him that he (Bader) was
wrong! :-))
Beautiful. It's realy interesting talking to those guys. I haven't met one
in a long time, now, though.. They'll soon be all gone.. I did meet a B-50
pilot at a party not too long ago. He was interesting to talk to alright.
Pretty old!

We're losing a lot of our last flying generation each year.
