Daniel A Strong

Military

David was very proud to have served in a significant position. the bombsights were the key to success of every mission and Dad took that responsibility very seriously. this became more significant to me when, last year the B-24 Witchcraft flew into the Medford, OR airport for an airshow. 'Witchcraft' was a plane in the 467th BG which my Dad had assuredly worked on. I climbed aboard, looked at the bombsight and cried for his memory
