Bio

I was a helicopter pilot in the Vietnam War from 03/1967 to 03/1968. My uncle, Richard Peebles from Spokane, WA, joined the RCAF in the spring of 1942 and was with the RAF until transferred to the 31st Fighter Group / 308th Fighter Squadron in October of 1942. The 31st was transferred to the 12th AAF for Operation Torch. He was shot down on April 21, 1943, captured and was POW until the end of the war.
