    Wild Blue is very good also and for those who read it, the story about the 500 pound bomb stuck in the rack, 1943 in Mountain Home, Idaho? My dad told me that same story and how he crashed on his WLA between runways heading over to the B24 after it landed. Dad also told the same story about going to the officer's club and getting the drunkest he'd ever been afterwards. When I told dad who the pilot was dad simply said "if I'd have known it was George McGovern I'd have let him crash". Not trying to start anything by telling that other than how it came from the mouth of an 87 year man.
