Comments: I was a B-26 pilot, didn't get to the ETO until February
'45. I spent 50 days in the hospital after a crash at Dodge City, KS. Air Base in 1944 and
then while ferrying a B-26 to the ETO by way of the southern route I had an engine start
cutting out. We made it to Fortaleza Brazil where we spent thirty days waiting for parts
from the states that never came. We went on to the Replacement Depot at Stone, England
finally arriving there on Valentines Day 1944. When the war ended in Europe I elected to
stay there, I didn't have enough points to go home and the Pacific did not attract me. I
spent thirteen months flying C-47s with the ATC. While I didn't see much hostile action,
the B-26 will always be a very important part of my life because it was during my
hospitalization after the crash at Dodge City that I met the Air Force Nurse who is now my
wife of fifty-six years.
