He wanted to be a pilot. The Guard had a slot, and the others didn't.

How come you didn't join the Marines and volunteer for the Pacific?

The Army Air Corps was a tougher outift that took higher losses.


Tougher? You were in action what? Maybe an hour every other day?
Did you guys have a weight-room, or run 6 miles a day?

Where did you fight? Anywhere?


I didn't fight in WW2. I would tell you where I fought, but I know
how you operate with that question, so NO, I did not ride on B-26's
for a few months in 1945.

OK Art, tell that to a combat Marine - face to face. If all that happens is
he asks you where you fought - and then laughs in your face when you tell
him you will be a very lucky man.

Just for the record, Jack, during WWII, the 8th Air Force sustained more
casualties over Europe than the entire United States Marine Corps did world-wide
throughout the entire war. If you don't believe me, just ask Google the right
questions and they'll provide the same answer that I just did....I know because
I've already done it.
