He did a bit of writing when he was alive, but did not get to finish. He passed in 1999. He did mention Lt. Blackwell (Blackie), B-29 named Slow Freight the 4th, Ernie Taylor and other information. He was seperated from his unit for a time and ended up with another unit until he could reunite with his unit, most of the other unit knew him as Green. Long story, but he was covered with the green die and it wouldn't wash off easily, so they just called him Green. Anyone from that unit with any info please let us in on the story! That is just part of one story and I would like to write more. If you knew him or or have any stories you can share or just information that will help me to understand more, I would greatly appreciate it.
