Nice that someone did this to share! I would love to see 1944 -- My father, Herbert Hannigan would be in that book.

[2] Barbara Jepson (01-Dec-2009 08:56 AM)

My father, Isadore Belinkie would also be in that book.

This was wonderful. We owe a lot to the greatest generation. I would love to see the book for class 45-7B. My husband would be in that book....

We now have a museum, Hanger 25 Air Museum, that is dedicated to the bombardiers and pilots trained in Big Spring. We are looking for any thing from the bombardier school that anyone would care to donate. We are 20 yrs. old and still growing. Please let me know if you would like to respond to this request.

I am always happy to find more information about my father. I am hoping to find items that I can purchase.

I am trying to find someone that knew my father Michael Frank Harris. He was a flight instructor there in the mid 60's.
If anyone knew him, has photos of him or a story they could share, I would greatly appreciate if you contact me.my email is tmelody2001@yahoo.com

Thank you
