Title: Burial at sea- pretty cool video
Post by: Toonces on December 23, 2012, 02:26:54 PM
I saw this over at SimHQ.  I don't usually click on these things, but I have to admit that this is worth watching.  It's only about 1:30 long.

An Avenger gunner gets buried at sea with his aircraft in WW2.

A few posts down on another site was a link to the story of this hero, and what happened and such.  Very, very cool and worth reading:

My questions about the particulars were answered by the write up on the page. Thanks for posting this, Toonces.
