We meet Don many years ago when he came to see an old friend from the 1930s, the Waco you see behind him. Don, when he was in his teens flew this very Waco you see pictured behind him here. To earn the money to fly, he would use the Waco to fly around SoCal delivering parts. A WWII vet, he landed on the beaches on D Day +2 leading a special forward observer unit. During the Battle of the Bulge his unit crawled up between the German and Allied front lines putting our orange arrows showin the incoming P-47s where to attack. A gentle soul, he touched ours and we miss him.
