This is simply amazing. Thank you for sharing.
I recently visited with the former mayor of Cours Les Bains, France. At age 6, he saw my plane shot down. His father found the window of my canopy & kept it safe. He showed it to me in 2008 & offered it to me but we decided a museum. #WWII, #LotetGaronne Nice visit

Can you share some stories from your days at Hahn Air Base, Sir?

He briefly goes through that in his biography "Yeager" (in case you haven't read it). The story of his getting downed during WWII and escaping to Spain is crazy, out of the "Great evasion" movie.
