Post by: Nefarious on January 27, 2020, 06:54:55 PM: https://www.mcfarlandfuneralchapel.com/obituary/Jess-Ledford?fbclid=IwAR1KjnBNqSSLWoYWuWGX_jeM4vZGF-1ch2FfEif1SHU1XAzUEsVn9T8Gd-U

I met Box in Dayton Ohio gatherings and he flew with us regularly in the 412th. I will be organizing a memorial flight soon.

Post by: hazmatt on February 02, 2020, 10:05:33 PM: Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth
And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings;
Sunward I've climbed, and joined the tumbling mirth
of sun-split clouds,-and done a hundred things
You have not dreamed of-wheeled and soared and swung
High in the sunlit silence. Hov'ring there,
I've chased the shouting wind along, and flung
My eager craft through footless halls of air....
Up, up the long, delirious, burning blue
I've topped the wind-swept heights with easy grace
Where never lark nor ever eagle flew-
And, while with silent lifting mind I've trod
The high untrespassed sanctity of space,
Put out my hand, and touched the face of God
