Re: The USAAF in action
sorry Fred but it just not going to happen, I have brought this up here as well as 2 other forums I moderate on. many are home from school, or are home schooled or at work under an alias so the boss doesn't nail their behind.......more common than what you think. I for one fully understand your frustration ~
armyairforces.com
this is the premier site of USAF in all capacities and I became a memver when it was first introduced. you will find the loss data base through the posted MACR's but not all of them are included as with every AF during the war even the winners, there were losses not recorded-MIA's that did not get a macr coverage. but what is nice about research and the archaelogy digs, some have been found and those deceased interned
because of lost bombers duplicating Chorleys tremendous study at least for the 8th AF we can go to their individual bomb group histories which of course is really long and drawn out and expensive for personal use, the same goes for the 8th AF fighter jocks of which I have many and are in contact with many. Lesser with the 15th AF in both the bomber and fighter capacity as I believe not all the 15th AF bomber groups have been covered and what is worse for the ETO the 9th has barely gotten a shot unless it was done with the care of someone in those individual units out of a labor of love and privately printed and most probably today OOP.
Roger Freeman a name well known gave his all with research and publication of the US 8th AF history in multiple forms.

No, Fred. I'm not the webmaster. I found this link only.

Re: The USAAF in action
we used to have almost squared crossing like tic-tac-do. most of downtown is secured in safer locations but yet some side streets with alleys........oh my how on earth any of that is still legal without a major discharge and subsequent fire(s) to downtown business is beyond me. It should be listed as a crime
ok back to the USAF

off toppic : Cables and rays
One problem added to the aerial lines:
Function as antennas of radio, and in case of strong and near rays, they are very destructive.....
In my home are one device at the mains of telephonic line, and the computers -notepad too- & TV-DVD-Vídeo are protected with a SAI-UPS.
