RE: Privateers? Crashes? A Ghost Blimp? Airships Named “Ranger” Had a Difficult Year in 1942

in #history7 years ago

My father took this photo in May 1944 of a B-24 Liberator in World War 2 over Germany just before it exploded....That explosion brought down his B-24....His parachute was so damaged by the explosion that he was not able to get it open until he was 200 feet from hitting the ground.....He was captured by the NAZIs and Liberated by Patton's 3rd Army in April 1945....The B-24 is not a BLIMP.....But it is HISTORY.....LOL😺🐾B24_3.jpg
