Just got a PM from Scott giving the go ahead to off the book for sale on WIX.

So, anyone interested can PM me their address. The PDF disc with 250 pages of letters, photos, and stories is $20. $10 will go to Scott and the WIX operations fund and $10 will go to cover the disc and Priority Mail costs.

Easiest way is PayPal, but check or Money Order will work too.

Thanks,
Scott 8)

I just wanted everyone to know that I received a copy from Scott and it is very interesting.

Funny how the more things change the more they stay the same. Always have to write home to Mom and let her know how "safe" things are.

Awesome read and awesome pictures.

Kudos to Scott's father for keeping all of these letters and pictures in such good condition.

So worth the $20, priceless in my mind.

Scott, I hope you don't mind if I provided a copy for the Yankee Air Museum's library.

Thanks again for putting this together for us Scott. <Salute Sir>

Many thanks for the kind words. 8) I know that this story is special to me but I think it gives a glimpse into the lives of many of our parents, grandparents, and relatives.

I am honored on behalf of Dad and his mates that the museum will have a copy.

Kindest Regards,
Scott Dennison :wink:

scott sent me the rough draft a few years ago, a top notch & intimate read with great perspective from an average american fighter pilot.
