Gents, I believe somebody can help me with the following:
13 years ago, around this time (it was before Christmas) I found an article on the net by Boardman C. Reed, called "My north Americans". He was a WWII pilot from the 17th BG, one of the first who flew the new (at that time) B-25 and later the B-17. He was a great personality and sadly left us in 2012.
The above mentioned article was on a site called "Findarticles" on a bNet-domain which is gone for good. Findarticles still exists, but I couldn't find the same article which was on 13 pages. I tried the Waybackmachine, but the article is not saved there. Every search so far using Google was unsuccessful.
There is one hope though - a hard copy may still exist. The same article was published earlier in 2 (or 3) issues of Air Classics, volume 37 (year 2001), Issues 3-5 (March to May). The issue I'm looking for is #3, March 2001:
Unfortunately the printing house or edition of Air Classics (Challenge Publications Inc.) does not sell back issues before 2018.
I'm looking for the article only, not for the whole issue and if somebody has it and wants to share it I'll be much obliged.
There is a chance to purchase a book by the same author, but I'm not sure if it offers the same information. The book is called Flights Forgotten...and Remembered.
Cheers!
