My wife and I would like to buy a copy of this book if anyone has one they'd like to sell or knows anyone who does. Her grandfather is Robert Adam Thompson who is pictured in this. It is the only known photograph we have of him since he died in a training accident in 1952 when my wife's father was only 4 years old and his mother died only a few years after that. Additionally most of his service records burned in the great archive fire of 1973 which has made it difficult to find information on him. We finally found enough clues to find that he'd attended flight school at Pampa which brought us here. We would also be interested in talking to or corresponding with anyone who knew my wife's grandfather.
