Military

Flew 30 missions. Flew some missions in the Battle of the Bulge. Flew one mission to take supplies to Patton that was noted as a milk run but was his most perilous run ever and the crew never got combat credit for it. Capt. obemeyer made a cassette tape of his recollections and shared this with us. My family was able to meet his crew, something I know I will never forget.
