From: (B2431) Date: 9/7/2004 1:52 PM Pacific Standard Time Message-id: I'll bet he saw more combat than you did and he flew C-54s. A C-54 is not a combat aircraft. Seeing "action" implies that you have done harm to the enemy. You can't do harm to the enemy in an unarmed So being fired on multiple times doesn't count. Taxiing in wearing substantial portions of your deceased copilot and good friend doesn't count. Having a second copilot killed during landing doesn't count. Flying onto disputed airfields doesn't count? Losing 20 ft of fuselage to an artillery round and flying whats left of the airplane to Guam doesn't count? So I guess whatever it was he was delivering under fire could not have been that important. Well, I'm glad you cleared that up. I have a friend who was a C-47 driver on D-Day, dropped paras. I guess what he did doesn't count. A gentleman I sat next to in our town band went ashore with the first wave on D-Day but he was only a doctor so I guess he doesn't count. airliner. Flying combat airccraft is one thing, Flying airliners is something else. Does the word tactical transport mean anything to you? Do you know what day it is even? IBM There is the tip of the spear. Then there is everything else. The very best are at the tip of the spear. Where were you? Then you must not have been at the "tip of the spear", being as you have repeatedly proven to be anything but "the very best" (how can a pilot washout call himself the "very best"?). Brooks Arthur Kramer You weren't even good enough to make it to combat at all. How pathetic you are little boy hiding under a desk while a war raged and men fought. Arthur Kramer Eddie Slovik, George Lincol Rockwell, Tim McVeigh, Bennedict Arnold etc were "good enough to make it to combat." Gee, how selective can one get? Dan, U.S. Air Force, retired |

Do you know why they have pilots on bombers? Just for one reason which was to put a bombardier over a target for 30 seconds. Every bomber required at least one pilot, but not every bomber required a bombardier. The pilot is only a bus driver to deliver him where he can hurt the enemy. So don't make too big a deal of pilots . Some are good and some are not..If you get one who can fly a good bomb run, not dump your gyro and keep the wings level so you don't dump bombs all over the landscape, you are lucky.But good bomb run pilots are not all that easy to find. And as far as judging pilots performance on a bomb run, no one is more qualified to make that judgement than a bombardier. But this is a subject you would know nothing about. Sounds like you're bitter over washing out of pilot training and being made a bombardier. Never was in pilot traning.Sounds like you are bitter for not fighting for your country. But you cant blame me for that. You have only yourself to blame. Art, in WWII, if a drunken pilot got to snorting too much coke, could him mom get get a transfer to Alabama where he wouldn't seem so unusual? Or did that start in the early 1970s?

.... He's certainly overqualified to be a bombardier judging by your sorry ass. IBM Probably not fair to lump all bombardiers in with the sorry example we have to contend with on this news group. Jack G. |

Yup and ole Timmy McV got hisself a Bronze Star just like somebody else we could mention. Only difference is, that young Tim appears to actually have merited his award and got to keep it.

Well, Artie may have been a fine bombardier 58 years ago but I'm afraid the brain has turned to fat at this late date. And, yes, I am unworthy. I am a coward and never went into battle. I hang my head. raoul Jack G. |
