This is late but I don't care. The stories he has are priceless!

I assume he's telling you the stories, because there aren't any in that article. On a related note, one of our local veterans (don't know him personally) who went to the same event.

Flew flight engineer and top turret gunner on B-17s, including missions over Normandy on D-Day.

He flies a flag every day. He had two stolen by some @$$holes. Didn't report the first, reported the second. Within a short time after he reported the second, four local police officers showed up at his door with a flag they bought to replace his.
