Remembering World War Two Airmen: November 2009
http://untoldvalor.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Remembering World War Two Airmen. Saturday, November 28, 2009. Interview with 95th Ball Turret Gunner Robert Fay. Finally, after a few missions, "we got a new bird and we named it. I had to get pulled out twice after losing my oxygen. Fortunately, our crew called around frequently and made sure everybody answered. It was a team effort. I was pulled out unconscious by our waist gunner, Bob Hamlin. I owe him a debt for that.". We knew they (Me262s) were there but didn't know when we'd run into them.".
