David thanks, I may have found the answer, it sounds as if he was a petty officer 2nd class in Aviation Ordinance.Does that sound about right?
This would equal out to a sgt. in the Army I believe.
Now, to figure out what he did.If I remember correctly he stated once that he was a tail gunner or rear gunner something to that effect.
Too bad, we can't get some of these older men to talk about their military experiences before they die of old age or unexpectedly.
There's some that you can't get to shut up about it and everytime they tell their "stories" they get embellished more, and then there's the ones who never talk about it period.I believe the ones who never talk about it period are the ones who may have seen the most, and it just affected them too much to talk about it.May be wrong on that but that's my opinion.
