Anyone reading the book would gain the impression that wartime OK was paradise on earth! <br />Cheers, Gail.

Might have been the type of plane he was trained to pilot? Or just a matter of where there were spaces at the time. Anyhow, we figure over-confidence - and competence and planning - won us the war. Well, that and an industrial base that was not being bombed :) You and HGD keep flying high!Jed and Abby in MerryLandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00782709825274199133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5030432357826707438.post-17458877754760519172012-12-18T00:20:32.565+00:002012-12-18T00:20:32.565+00:00You sure are a heck of a model

Momma is always sending him weather alerts on hot or cold days telling him to refrain from his daily walk. Sometimes he listens. Sometimes not.
