                                    <td style='vertical-align: top;'>I stand corrected with an apology for misinformation I may have caused.<br><br>My dad didn't discuss his experience as a pilot in WWII.  I knew the name of Jill's Jalopy but never knew the number by which it was officially registered.  In fact, until I discovered this Forum, it had been my belief that dad's B-17 was shot down following his tour of duty in October, 1944.<br><br>I called my mother and she said it went down with another crew before that.  It was only here that I learned that Jill's Jalopy went down with Lt. Fish as pilot.  I'm on a learning curve that could have been filled in by my father during his lifetime.  So I'm getting it here and from his tailgunner, Joe La Grasta.<br><br>I check this site everyday with fascination and anticipation!<br></td>
