May 4 will be the anniversary of Ike announcing that the Allied war was done.
This fellow is pretty incredible.

Hey All,

Really cool. They were the greatest generation. My major professor on my MS degree was a fighter pilot with the flying Tigers and my folk dance teacher was a WASP pilot. Great stories from both and two of the nicest people I've ever known.
