Flight of Old 666........B-17

BOMBER The Flight of Old 666 AN INCREDIBLE STORY OF BRAVERY For those of us who were born and lived through WWII, this will put a lump in your throat. For those who afterward, it's a valuable historical film of how dedicated our armed forces are...no matter what war it is. Please take the time to watch this video. It is a powerful statement of heroism against impossible odds. Two Congressional Medal of Honor were awarded during this  mission. So long ago.... It is up to us to remind the Americans coming now to maturity, of this great bravery by these great guys.... Heroism at it's best! Click below http://voxvocispublicus.homestead.com/morrow.html
