Good one Wild. I have seen these videos before. Mostly from the ABC on ANZAC Day

Thanks Wildcat. Particularly like the RAAF Eagles clip.

No worries guys, these are all available on the DVD titled "Damian Parer's Kokoda Frontline" well worth a look.

I had an Uncle who was stationed in Austrailia with the 5th AF in WWII. He was a crew member on a B-25 or 24. He died in 1972 and I never really got to talk to him. I know he had quite a few pictures of some of the planes in his Squadron "The Grim Reapers". These vid clips are interesting.

Hi,

It sounds like your Uncle was a crew member of a B-25 Mitchell bomber with the 13th Squadron of the 3rd Bomb Group.

I am writing a history of the 3rd BG in WWII. Please contact me if you get this message.
