	Clark Gable 8th USAAF 1943  During much of 1943, Major Clark Gable was stationed at Polebrook to produce a recruiting film for aircraft gunners. While there, he flew five combat missions as an observer. Much of the film was shot by MGM cinematographer Andrew McIntyre, who not only accompanied Gable, but who also enlisted with him in the USAAF. Gable's first combat mission occurred on 4 May 43 flying with Capt WR Calhoun from the 303rd Bomb Group at Molesworth in the lead aircraft nicknamed 'Eight Ball II' #41-24635 and targeting Antwerp, Belgium. His second mission was on 15 Jun 43 flying with Lt. Theodore. Argiropulos from the 351st Bomb Group at Polebrook in the aircraft 'Argonaut III' #42-29851 and targeting Villacoublay, France. His third combat mission occurred on July 24, 1943 flying with Lt.Col . Robert W. Burns from the 351st Bomb Group at Polebrook in 'Argonaut III' #2-29851 and bombing Heroya, Norway. His fourth combat mission occurred 12 Aug 43 flying with Capt John B.

	First USAAF Raid over Germany: unedited crew interviews  Wednesday, January 27, 1943: The first USAAF raid over a German target is carried out. A total of 55 American bombers raid Wilhelmshaven, losing 3 bombers and claiming 22 German planes shot down. This clip contains the unedited crew interviews following the raid. Notable is (then Colonel) Curtis Lemay referring the the raid as "rather dull". Also one Sergent uses the word "damn" during his description which is quickly re-shot and the Sergent looks at loss for words. I think this un-edited film provides a better perspective of aircrew character and personality than any other film I have seen. 2007年11月11日再生回数 106576

	The Messerschmitt Me 262 spooks USAAF bomber  The Messerschmitt Me 262 Schwalbe (German: "Swallow") was the world's first operational turbojet fighter aircraft.It was produced in World War II and saw action starting in 1944 as a multi-role fighter/bomber/reconnaissance/interceptor warplane for the Luftwaffe. German pilots nicknamed it the "Sturmvogel," (Stormbird) while the Allies called it the "Turbo." The Me 262 had a negligible impact on the course of the war due to its late introduction, with 509 claimed Allied kills (although higher claims are sometimes made), against more than 100 Me 262 losses. 2008年06月04日再生回数 425443

	Framlingham USAAF airfield 8TH Airforce 390TH bomb group museum and control tower.  A short video I made with still pictures at the site of the former USAAF base at Framlingham, Suffolk, UK, Part of the 8th airforce, the 390th BG (Heavy) flew from here in WW2. The control tower is extant and is open to visitors for free, with the museum beneath. It is well woth a visit if you are ever in the area. After the picture montage, there is a video showing a large B-17G built by a local. The diorama it sits on is very well made too, and the simulated motor sound with the props spinning was great to see. 2010年10月08日再生回数 820
