May 16, 20188 yr comment_39685 Lots of folks to commend, congrats to all! Let the flow of medals begin! A little confusion with regard to Snaggle, did his pilot die, or just the gunner life? Report
May 16, 20188 yr Author comment_39686 Snaggle's pilot had a successful first sortie. Then he switched to a gunner for the second sortie, and lived. And then died as a pilot in the third sortie. Report
