I didn’t realize he was a real person until after that episode, and was in awe after I read about him.
I also wondered if the friendship between Buck and Bucky was played up, but it turned out they were lifelong friends.
I couldn’t imagine going on those bombing runs and watching your friends get shot down.

While you're subscribing, watch Ted Lasso, Severance, Schmigadoon, Trying, and a few other great shows on there.

Pretty good series. It was a tough watch. Rosie was a true American hero, as were many others depicted on the show.

My neighbor flew 35 missions over Germany as a B17 pilot. He would never talk about the experience.........
