Thanks for listening! It gets even better in part 2 when we pop Bob back in an A-20.

My uncle was a radio repair specialist in the 89th Bombardment Squadron (Light) in New Guinea, part of the 3rd Bombardment Group (Light) and Mr. Reierson would surely have flown joint missions with the 89th. The 89th produced a 150 page unit history in hardcopy at the end of the war and the photo he shows of an A-20 just above the smokestack of a Japanese ship is also reproduced in the 89th's history. I have a copy which I am sure he would like to see so reply and I may be in his part of the country this year. In the 50's the commanding general of the 14th AF at Warner Robins had an A-20 as his personal plane and it was a beauty, converted to carry 2-3 passengers and painted gloss black. You could do that then when you were a two star General!!

Joseph, that's terrific, and very interesting, but there's a problem. On many youtube channels (including mine) under "More about this channel" and then "Channel details" there's a button entitled "view...address." But you've not configured that information for your youtube channel. So how is he supposed to even find you?

What a lad! My uncle flew Boomerangs in New Guinea and there was at least one squadron of ‘havocs’ flown by the RAAF.😊

At age 100, Bob appears to be sharper than ANY of the three candidates for President of the United States, this year.
