Message |- | '''swinny''' <br/><br/><div class='poster-info'><img src='/public/Attachments/ForumNew.MainPage/swinny.jpg' /></div><br/>1/6/2008 3:46:32 PM | I just looked at the old forum and found something greats.<br/> I don't know if you all knew about this , but I will place it here anyway.<br/> <br/> Its from Frank Kirkman and this is the link to a video of the 401st<br/> <br/> [http://kirkmangenealogy.com/history/charles_video.htm]<br/> <br/> Andy <br/><br/>_________________________________<br/> <br/> <img class='ForumMaxImgWidth' src='http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v146/swinny/margraten012.jpg' /> My adoption graves [http://www.remember-our-heroes.nl/us_401stBG.htm|http://www.remember-our-heroes.nl/us_401stBG.htm]<br/> |- | '''Paul Bellamy''' <br/><br/><div class='poster-info'><img src='/public/Attachments/ForumNew.MainPage/Paul Bellamy.jpg' /></div><br/>1/6/2008 8:16:06 PM | Cheers for transferring that message Andy.<br/> <br/> "These videos are dedicated to my Uncle Charles Kirkman (radio operator gunner serving 32 combat missions) the last surviving crew member of the Ice Cold Katy and the brave men of the 401st bomber group that defended our freedom during WW II. The average survival rate for airmen on combat missions was 16 missions. "<br/> <br/> EDIT: Duff files removed.<br/> It seems something in this forum's setup doesn't allow embedded Youtube video screens. Ah well.<br/> <br/> NOTE: In case any reader is confused, not all the images on the videos are of the 401st. <br/> There are scenes from many sources including the original Memphis Belle movie, generic USAAF stock, etc. all presented alongside genuine 401BG stills. The result is a great set of videos, well done to the Kirkman family.<br/> <br/> All the best,<br/> Paul <br/><br/>Paul Bellamy<br/> <img class='ForumMaxImgWidth' src='/public/Attachments/ForumNew.MainPage/resource1.png' /><br/> |}
