24th_infantry Posted June 6, 2016 Share #4 Posted June 6, 2016 That's great! My friend George "Pete" Buckley, who was a glider pilot, cut one off a glider when he heard the war was over. You have a great piece of history and really gives tribute to all those glider pilots. Thanks for sharing, especially on the D-Day Anniversary!

Glider-borne Posted June 13, 2016 Share #7 Posted June 13, 2016 Awesome piece of history ! And nice picture Neil. Memorial Brigadier General Don F. Pratt - 7 june 2015 As each year, I cross Hiesville many times, so beautiful little town with a lot of histories.A missing plate of our control panel comes from a field of Hiesville. In an aerial photo of ncap.org.uk, I found the Waco from which comes this plate. Mat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
