Great channel. My uncle was in the Army Air Corps in the China/India/Burma triangle. He went into the jungle as a spotter, and repaired shot up and broken radioes. The only story he ever told me was he witnessed a single seater crash landing, and that the largest piece of wreckage could be put in an envelope.

I've been visiting with a WW2 veteran for almost two years now at a local nursing home. Everything he has told me is off of memory, he served with the 3rd Army Airforce as a Flight Engineer working with p38s. He started his service in 1943 going to Sheperfield Texas for his training. He went to Tufoll SA to learn Morse Code and transferred to the army in 1944 to the 25th Infantry Division, 161st Regiment "Tropical Lightening". His name is Calvin Coolidge Cradduck, born July 22, 1924. I can't find a lot on his records, so if someone could help me, I would greatly appreciate it.

I have a question, my father was stationed at Moore Field in Mission Texas from 42-45 which was an Air Training Command. He never served in combat, however I read somewhere that they fell under Combat patch 2,3 or 4. Would you be able to clarify this for me? I would appreciate it so much as I am working on a display as a keepsake for our family.
