Thanks for sharing these truly amazing addendums with us Steve! I think it's great that he was invited back to France where they rolled out the red carpet for him! Too bad you were so young when Madame Heller visited.....I can just imagine the stories that were shared that day!
Have you done anything special with the few pieces of his P-38 that he was given (in a glass case, hanging up etc)?

Everything is safe and secure with his wife (widow) at their property in North Carolina where he moved to after he retired from 3M company. The only item I would like to have someday is his Purple Heart but we want to keep all of the mementos together for now. By the way, Kenji, he was one of only four salesman for 3M that sold adhesives to the aerospace industry so even though he never flew again after the war he stayed up on the latest in aviation. My most vivid memory was when I was 16 and we saw Apollo 15 blast off.

I've been checking my local PBS listings but nothing is scheduled yet.....hope you guys get a chance to see it!

Hi RG,
My radar isn't picking up when the documentary is scheduled either.....I'm sure we will know something by next week - can't wait!

Hi Kenji!

PMed you a little while ago...how did you manage to already see it? It's still not showing up on my local PBS station's listings on the 7th and I'm in a major metropolitan area. Hey wait a minute............did you go to Oahu for the premiere on Ford Island the other day?!

Hi Conch,
I would guess that it's not based on the length of the show (roughly 1hr20min) too long when you're moving/cycling tours in and out, BUT with it being the 75th. you never know. You'll have to fill us in when you return home. I'm guessing your bags have been packed for at least a week now and sitting next to the front door ....have fun Conch!
