About the Book
This book is about my experiences as a Tailgunner on a B-29 in Korea, during the Korean war. I am hopeing that it will give an insite as to what this war was about. Although people call it a conflict, we as veterans think otherwise, we believe it was a war. Come ride along with me on some 27 combat missions over North Korea. Venture into the night life on a B-29 at 29,000 ft. over the mountains of Korea, see the snow covered barron lands. It also covers a little about my growing up and how I became a tailgunner. The extensive training it takes to become a crew member.
