That (the tail gunner pasition) is where my Uncle Bob spent the war years, and lived, and loved to talk about it! He later transferred over to B-24's. He had all sorts of war stories to tell me when I was a young child, especially of his B-24 being shot down over the Burmese jungle, and his being rescued and nursed back to health by the natives. He used to show me the bullet slug he still carried in his heel! The natives were very friendly people, but yhey had no surgical skills, and they stunk like anything, I remember him telling me!
