"Mortimer Schnerd, RN" wrote in message ...
My dad told me stories of being buzzed every morning by a Brazilian P-47 squadron in Italy in WWII. He was flying C-47s at the time and said the Thunderbolts would come roaring over just above the tents. Made a hell of a noise. Some time ago I received an e-mail from a USAAF vet telling me exactly the same story. He told me he flew C-47's and while he was stationed at Tarquinia (after the Brazilian FS moved on to Pisa) the Brazilian P-47's would every once in a while "visit" their former base and make some low passes over the tents. Unfortunately I lost that e-mail message the last time I had to format my HD but, considering the coincidence, can I guess it was your father who wrote me ??
