Bob Buckles in the cockpit of a Harvard trainer.
I love this picture. Imagine how he must be feeling at this moment !
_________________________________________________ These two photos I copied off a page that Bob Buckles had put up on a site I believe was called "Roots & Wings". I meant to put a link to it eventually when I got around to making Bob's page but when I got around to it, it was gone... such is the internet. Anyway, thankfully I had copied these pix ( I liked them ) because here I am and the site is gone. So, if you are Bob, I have tried to track you down to no avail so am posting these thinking you might find them and grant me permission to use them. If not, I will take them down. (these photos are the personal property of Bob Buckles) Bob put a lot of information about his war years on his page and I got a real kick out of reading it all and checking out his photos. I think Bob's page and info should be put back online and I would be more than glad to post it here, for eternity, if I could get a hold of it ... Bob ... anyone ???? Until then, my info is clearly lacking ... _________________________________________________
