I know this is a bit off of topic, but wanted to share. I spent most of April taking care of my Dad at home under Hospice care and home health as he succumbed to his fourth bout of cancer. We buried him 29 days after he was diagnosed that the cancer was back (he had 3 prior rounds of it, and had been healthy for the last 5 years).
He was a tough dude, and loved to fly in the Cub and 185 both. He was a nose gunner on a B24 crew in WWII but would never talk about it, even in the end, and I respected that. After he died I found his own logbook, and sheeez 49 missions into European theater, and shot down twice. I transcribed only a couple of his entrys, and found his bomber group on the web... If you are interested:

Here is a salute and toast to all fallen fathers, and all flying veterans that kept our land free!!!!!!!!!!
