For those of you in the Portland OR area who might be lurking on this thread, the B-17, B-25, Mustang, and the Collins Foundation B-24 (the only flying B-24 in the world) will be at the Hillsboro Airport this weekend.

My Dad, Lt. Col. (then Capt.) Clinton A. Gruber, Ret., was a B-24 co-pilot in the 8th AF 93rd Bomb Group flying out of England; POW, Stalag Luft I. He is, thankfully, still with us.
