It is a really well-done site. It even has a few pictures of his plane, "Monsoon." I could spend all day reading stuff like that. Heck, not long after he passed, my Grandmother gave two of his leather-bound notebooks, but enclosed with a zipper: One contained every single order/military document he received from the time he enlisted in the 1930's to OCS to bombardier training to his retirement in 1967; and the other was his flight notebook that contained many pictures. Both are kept safe at home..might have to pull them out soon!

I also know all of the markings of his plane and got a friend who is good with photoshop to create images from some of the pictures which I can use to make decals for a 1/72 B-29 that I will one day build.
