Especially since this is still going on in lovely little 3rd world toilets run buy cowards and despots who want everyone to think like they do. Without the efforts of our men in those places there would be a new 'Hitler' rising....thanks for honoring those fallen heros.
No, sincerly no.
Don't forget that lots and lots of Europeans lost their lives during WWII too and yes lots of American and Allied paid the ultimate sacrifice for the Freedom of the World.
Don't take offense Jet1, but during WW2, differents peoples of my familly take huge risks to help downed airmen, provided them civil clothes, hide them at home and help to escape to England. One of them was arrested, tortured and deported in concentration camp. She survived and come back but with the huge weight of all these horrors.
So, just undestrand that it's hard for me (and for lots of other peoples) to read that "Europe has forgotten "
We can have different opinion on differents subjects today but we will never forget our common history.
I have the biggest respect to these KIA airmen who paid the ultimate sacrifice.
Randy: good flight tomorrow and tanks to take part in this comemorative job, it's really important.
Sorry for my bad English but after a hard day at work, it's not really easy to concentrate
but when France decides to not support our activities in Iraq, and I see 20 year old Nazis marching around, and see terrorists kill artists because of ALLAH....I do wonder whats going on over there. The difference for me is that we went over there to help out. My dad flew B-17s as a young lad. I travel to England once or twice a year and get over to the continent as time permits. I have actually seen more of England than I have of the US!
