FPP231 - Daylight Raids Over Europe
From Fighter Pilot Podcast · 59:04
Show by Tucker "Cinco" Hamilton, Retired U.S. Air Force Fighter Test Pilot
T.J. Jones joins Cinco to share how he tracked down ten of the last surviving B-17 airmen of the Mighty Eighth Air Force for his documentary, 10 Good Men. The film pairs their firsthand accounts with restored footage from both old American and German archives to tell the story of the daylight bombing campaign over Europe. Jones talks about everything from the bombers’ nose art to what the men remembered about flying into combat. It’s an amazing and untold story! Learn more about your ad choices.
