Really enjoyed this one. Lots of expertise and knowledge about something I knew very little about. Crazy these women pilots were not granted veteran status in 1945! Plus, I first saw this movie while flying home from Desert Storm in 1991. I remember the flak going off in the movie, hitting the Memphis Belle, as my 747 hit turbulence - a true, 4-D experience! :-) Also, been to the real Memphis Belle in Memphis with my Dad - and the 8th Air Force museum outside Savannah on I-95 - a terrific little museum if you get a chance to go - not sure if they include anything about women's contributions or not. Been decades since I went. Again, thanks - very well done by both of you!
