WWII Hero Frank Greer

It was an incredible honor for me to take Frank Greer for a flight. Frank was a ball turret gunner on "Section '8'" B-17 in WWII. The winds and turbulance were horrible on the day we went flying. He teased me before we took off that he hoped he wouldn't get airsick. As soon as we lifted off, and started into that turbulance, I knew he wouldn't get airsick. He was comfortable; flying. As I said, it was an honor beyond belief to have him grace the right seat of the Skyhawk.
