Aaron just threw a shoe at me for that last one. Back to working on the website.

By the way, any of you watching the New Product Rundown episodes?

And then, before I can board the chopper that will take me to Nome, an argument with Aaron over the use of bomb aimer as opposed to bombardier.

By the way, BFG-9000 FOR THE WIN!

Guess it depends if your American or British. US sites say Bombadier. British say Bomb Aimer. Which of course means the latter is correct. Big Smile

The old Frog Whitley came with a bomb aimer.

And just to add a little fuel to the fire....

Later in the war, when all planes in the group dropped on the lead, they were simply called 'toggliers'...

I remember my dad obsessing over that one until his cousin from the 8th AF cleared it up...
