when you had scores of b17 s in tight formation .they were a real force to be recond with,they had massive fire power, I find it so sad that the USA, like britain lost so many

Hello Vee-

Last night I watched "The Train" starring Burt Lancaster. A great WWII film from 1964 that was dedicated to the brave French railroad workers who sacrificed their own lives to sabotage Nazi rail shipments during the war. That took alot of guts, knowing that for every successful effort the German reprisals would be swift and out of proportion to the "crime."
