Filming has started on a feature documentary that we are producing about Whiskey 7’s Return to Normandy. We have found living pilots from our plane’s squadron and even an 82nd Airborne paratrooper who jumped from Whiskey 7 on D-Day over St. Mere Eglise. Here is an excerpt from an interview we recently conducted with Leslie Palmer Cruise, Jr.

In the hanger Saturday: Work continued on installing the accessories on the engines (Hugh, Dave A, John P, Loren H, and Jon C.). We approved the work on the first batch of engine accessories which are out for rebuild at Aero Accessories in San Antonio Texas. The donated paint for the ailerons arrived this week from Polyfiber so that work will start next week. -- Sincerely, The Return to Normandy Team
