q-tip Posted January 29, 2018 Report Share Posted January 29, 2018 Herr Ford of the Ford Company would've readily welcomed the Swastika to fly over all of USA. He received a medal from Hitler and the German government. 1 Quote Link to comment
Jesse C. Posted January 29, 2018 Report Share Posted January 29, 2018 He received a medal from Hitler and the German government. But so did Charles Lindbergh, and one must take into account that most of this happened before the war broke out Lindbergh went on to "redeem" himself during the war, and Ford Co. turned into a War Production dynamo to defeat Fascism 3 Quote Link to comment
VFR800 Posted January 30, 2018 Report Share Posted January 30, 2018 He received a medal from Hitler and the German government. And he sent Herr Hitler $50k per year on Herr Hitler's Birthday. 1 Quote Link to comment

Jesse C. Posted January 31, 2018 Report Share Posted January 31, 2018 Lindbergh was a pile of shit. He took a dump on his own legacy by being a Neutrality Freak and hanging out with the Nazis for a bit. But there is not denying that he was a hero of flight. And who know, maybe the hardship of having his kid taken and killed may have made it worse. 1 Quote Link to comment

Jesse C. Posted February 1, 2018 Report Share Posted February 1, 2018 B-29 after a gear up landing. It lost a prop, and that took out the second one https://donmooreswartales.com/2010/06/11/robert-wallace/ 1 Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted February 1, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2018 B-29 after a gear up landing. Wouldn't it lose the belly gunner in that case? 1 Quote Link to comment

Jesse C. Posted February 2, 2018 Report Share Posted February 2, 2018 Wouldn't it lose the belly gunner in that case? It was not a gear up landing. I posted a link to the story behind the pic, and yes, a belly landing would pretty much wipe out everything underneath 1 Quote Link to comment
