Hello to everyone. I stumbled onto this site a while back and have been thoroughly impressed. I have always been an aircraft and WWII history buff (my father was in the USAF) and recently a friend brought me along to an Aces Symposium and it rekindled the old interest. I have since been looking for as much information as i can get on pilots and their aircraft, and sharing that information with my son. Being a Marine myself, i have always tended to favor the F4U and the men who flew them. Any way, thanks for the great site guys and i hope i can contribute some.
