Dad’s B-24 Liberator was involved in a mid-air collision with another B-24. They got locked together and fell out of control from 26,000 feet to les than 6,000 feet. One of the other bombers vertical stabilizers was ripped off in the collision and was impaled on the. ISS of Sad’s plane. A war correspondent happened to be making a film about planes getting shot up and making it back on a wing and a prayer! This freaked me out when Dad’s pilot showed me the video. It’s one thing to see a photo of your father during the war, but totally another to see him in a video 7 years before you were born.
