Who knows anyone there?
Long story short, and this is kind of a cross post from the Masters of the Air thread…
I found my grandfather’s old co-pilot from WW2 on the interwebs. He’s been giving talks about his experiences for years. Up in SEA. His name is Dick Nelms. (2nd from the left, my grandfather is 4th from the left.)
I kinda gave up trying to find out anything once my grandfather died years ago. He never talked about his experiences. Ever.
And because I read the book and then the TV show came out, I found myself trying to find out more again. So, after discovering the serial # of his plane the internet rabbit hole led me to him. He just turned 101 and he gave a talk back in January and unfortunately there’s nothing else on the schedule.
I’d love to just be able to hear a few stories. So, I know this is a huge diverse community… anyone have a connection?
