Good post. Read the book and enjoyed it. Every time I see a pic of the B-17 I wonder how anyone could be alive in it. So much damage.

Thank you for posting the link, Paul. There are several other videos on Youtube about that incident.

Very touching and interesting story.
Interesting that Stigler ended up in BC.
Sounds like a CBC interview - brings back memories for this transplant.

Which ones did the Elves make

**Stumptonian** · 03-31-2017 20:14

The picture quality is about up to 7-11 surveillance camera standards, so you could be any one of those, David.

My guess i the bass player

**clipper1801** · 03-31-2017 23:06

Yeah, the old micro non adjustable cameras with 110 film, taken by a "groovy" older sister. Between the bass player and our lead singer is a guy standing tall, what you need to blur your vision to see is some guy in front of him with long hair pouring over the synthsizer and key board. That might be me . . . might not, depending on who wants to know . . . "Smoke on the water" as I recall.
