What a wonderful bed that was last nite - had the first hot bath in 30 days and was it wonderful. Took off at noon for our final base - not going to Scotland after all. Flew over English countryside and over dozens of airfields in 2 hours flying time. Most of squadron landed at the wrong field but I found it O.K. Field is brand new - only 50% completed but we will have nice layout when we get it fixed up. We live in a hut that looks like a huge barrel split end to end and one half of it used as a barracks. However they are quite cozy. It was just like a class reunion meeting all the boys again. Lucas my tail gunner was sure happy - he saw me taxi up and he just jumped up and down waving his arms and hollering. Spent evening discussing trip with those who had to come by boat.
The 1944 Journal of WWII Pilot Bill Callison. Follow the adventures of Bill as written in the daily journal he kept. While this is 64 years after his entries into the journal his mother gave him for Christmas in 1943, you will be able to experience WWII England and France. This is truly a family treasure that I am sure you will enjoy.
