Buff bombing at 50 feet!

[Bronk]

No, I'm pretty sure he out there yelling "They can't do that, it's not historical!" and then left in a huff.

in a simple world, yes. Okay, call it all "dirt" -- still not part of the "tall tales" where grass blades apparently stuck to antenna on the B-24Ds, not "sod" (not counting the fact there WERE no antennas under the B-24D nose to catch grass upon...)

Are you sure that you, of all people, wish to carry on a discussion regarding the "tall tales" of Ploesti, or even what qualifies as dirt?

Apparently I'm more qualified to question what's thrown at me than some.

P.S. The tall tale was "blades of grass" not "sod"

If you've ever done landscaping, it's frakking night and day. My point was to point out the difference between "grass" and "sod"....

Krusty you do realize you're arguing about dirt, right?

[Krusty]

Correction, about sod

And the beat goes on.

I have it on good authority that the Ploesti bombers were actually between 4,000 and 14,000 feet. The claims of flying at 50 feet are patently absurd.

The best advice here it to heed Hubs' warning. Click on that link if you need to know why. Egads.
