Great video and story

Usually I won't take the time to watch a 15 minute video, but that was awesome, and worth it.

That's awesome. I love that kind of stuff...

My great uncle was a P-47 pilot who died during the Battle of the Bulge in Luxembourg. About 10 years ago, my grandfather was able to go over there and meet with some people who had actually been living there at the time, and took him to some of the wreckage that was still sitting out in the woods. He came back with some Thunderbolt parts and a ton of pictures. Really cool to see.

Fantastic! Just awesome! Loved it. The look on his face price-less..... RIP lost in that war, and to those veterans who made it back to see their wives and children, those guys fought America's greatest war (WWII).

I just love the honor via memory that this video brings to him.
