Highlight of an experience or memory from WWII: Saved 27 people on a B24 delivery. Explaining saving of lives: As they were taking off for a mission he noticed the gas cap had come off one of the wings and gas was spilling from the plane. Had to run tell the pilot and get all the men strapped in because they had to make an emergency landing.
