That’s my uncle Pete during WWII. He flew Dauntless dive bombers and that particular picture was taken just before he left for a raid on Rabaul.

Later he flew helicopters in Korea.

In another thread I mentioned he bought a Rolex and gave it to my grandfather as a gift. The watch I subsequently ruined when I had it redialed. Same guy.

Pete was a really neat guy and I even though he’s been gone a long time I keep this picture of him in my office to remind me, not just of him, but what sacrifices life requires sometimes.

Here’s the only other wartime picture I have of him. I need to get this one framed.

WOW.....that is an amazing airborne pic.

As you know....where Uncle Pete is now....he ALWAYS has blue skies & tail winds and thank you for your service for freedom. GodSpeed Uncle Pete!

Dude...I’m too tired [and lazy] to hobble down to the safe in the basement and fetch my Speedy Gonzales Moonwatch...so you’ll have to settle for an old Speedy Friday video. 😁
