Many of the memories and old stories have been captured on video over the
last 20 years. I don't know who you'd contact to find subject lists. ...bill

My previous Father in Law was a B29 bombardier in WWII, in the Pacific.  
He did not talk to his family about the war until about 40 years after 
the war.  He started attending some reunions of fliers and met Chester 
Marshall, who wrote several books.  I ended up buying a couple of the 
books, although I don't remember which book had this particular incident 
in it.  Some of his books are still in print, others are available used 
through amazon.com.  IIRC the 2 books I have are _Sky Giants Over Japan_ 
and _The Global Twentieth_.
