Good stuff Zane, thanks for posting them on Veterans Day! Did you get to chat much with them? I hope they enjoyed seeing Aluminum Overcast.

I had a nice chat with both of them. I recorded (or attempted to record) some from both of them, me and the recorder did not get along well that day...I did got some video of Mr. Fisher. We are hoping to be able to make the audio workable for a Warbird Radio bit.

They are indeed the greatest generation!
