My friend,PFC Raul Vera was with the 748th Squadron and part of the ground crew for the Mysterious Witch. His job was loading and unloading the bombs and difusing them. Does anyone remember him? He will be recieving his WWII medals in a ceremony on December 13,2008 in Mercedes,Texas. He is turning 85 years old on January 13th. It makes me angry that our veterans ,especially our WWII vets, have to request their medals from a government that is already in possession of all the information needed to verify and approved the delivery of these awards that these men rightfully earned.
If anyone remembers him or if you would just like to send him a note from a fellow serviceman,please send it to me and I will forward it to him.
Happy Veterans Day!
God Bless All Soldiers
