I believe "The Fry Crew" on that website was done by Guppy35 here on the boards.  He does a lot of research and is very interested in that particular crew.

Yep, Bracelet in the Sand and The Fry Crew are mine.

The webmaster is an old AW Nomad buddie whose Dad was a B26 driver in WW2.

Ernie does a helluva job on that site honoring those guys.  Earl Miller is on that site too.

The "Bracelet in the Sand" story was excellent.  Loved the pix as well.

Thanks :)

It was a bit spooky finding Ash Guynn's family and then calling his widow.  She sent me most of those pictures.

Lot of those pics have been around for almost a decade, or more even. In fact 3-4 of them were used in AW 1, 2 and 3 splash screens, as GE worked for Kesmai Air Warrior Dept.

I forget where he's working now, last I remember emails from him were during the AW Kesmai/EA.crap era. right after AW 3.5/ME was released.

Both Earl and GE had time in AW for quite a while. Earl still visits BigWeek NG almost daily posting old flight logs.
