I ran into an old aqauintance at lunch. He had a littletrouble remembering me. I jogged his mind a little and he remembered me. I mentioned that he had told me about being a Rear Gunner on a SBD. He quickly replied that he had some real wild rides in the back seat. Id there anyone that can give me info about his past by name alone? His name is Frank Britton.

Thanks for looking.

Hi there...try calling the Dixie Wing next week @ 678 364 1110 or email me at kkorterud@yahoo.com. Ask to speak to Jim Buckley, Charles Burcher or Pop Wilson. With our SBD we have had the acquantiance of many SBD rear gunners....might be able to make a connection for you....
