John and the war years, ca. 1943-2002.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/55632720

In a well written memoir with photographs, Tanner tells of his experiences in World War II. He was tested during high school for admission into the Army Air Corps and passed. He entered basic training within a couple weeks of graduating high school, and then went on to his different flight training schools. He flew many missions over Europe, some bombing runs, some delivering food packages to the Dutch, and one in which he and his crew flew a group of liberated Prisoners of War out of Austria. The file was created on a computer and contains many digitally scanned photographs of different things from Tanner's experiences.

1 folder (18 p.) + computer printed photographs.
