What is a good online source for American aircrew and pilot biographies for all branches during WWII? I would like to be able to randomly print out their biographies to place in boxes for orders I receive. Kind of a small tribute. Thanks!

Thank you DeeMac! I'll pass this on to my friend who's grandfather flew with Torpedo 49..

Thanks. There just isn't much info about VT-49 or VF-49. VT-51 has gotten most of the attention because of Bush.

Doe anyone out there know anything about Torpedo 49? This is the patch that was shown to me. His grandfather flew TBM's or TBF's.

Hamburgers were cheaper in 88 too, but did you notice that the prices of beef patties in comparison to leather have not risen equally. :?: Thanks for the suggestion, but can't really be a "tanker" since I operate a sim center, just wouldn't seem right.

I guess I could be a captured German pilot for the WWII 82nd reenactors to escort during the parade.

Thanks! Nice jackets, and they are pricey! I guess I'll buy the jacket later on when it gets cooler.

I am interested in acquiring replica flight gear and uniforms so I can join the WWII reenactors in local parades as a WWII pilot. There are always infantry units, but no aviators. Any idea in where I can find the gear?

Thanks nuuumannn, I like Corgi. I have several that I sell in my shop. Sometimes I become attached to them and refuse to sell.

Forgive my ignorance, but is anti-flash paint the same thing as flat paints?

One is instant gratification, and the other one you have to build. Wish I had time and space to build models again. :( How did the Vickers turn out?

I did some research and found Bravo Delta Models. They are allowing me to sell their WWII aircraft on my storefront. A little pricey, but they are well crafted.

I would expect a visit from the feds if I bought it in bulk. :o

That is some nasty stuff! Expensive?

Here I thought I was messed up all these years. Now I see I'm not alone. My 15 Year old son likes the cotton wool soaked in lighter fluid. :o
