I pulled out an old 5 year diary, given to me as a highschool graduation present. I noticed that on July 13, 1942 I had made an entry that related a little bit to the photo posted yesterday.
After graduation from Armament School, I was sent to Craig Field, Alabama. There, besides being an aircraft armorer, I was also rated as first class air mechanic and squadron crew chief.
The diary entry reads: “I have all my planes ready to go to Eglin Field, Florida tomorrow, for gunnery practice. I will go see Lomie tonight to tell her that I will be gone for the next three weeks.”
