Greetings from the UK. I have been the UK historian for the 398th Bomb Group since 1971, I was also one of the founder members of 'Friends of the Eighth' (FOTE) back in 1973. John Woolnough came to a few of our meetings and was so impressed at our turn-out (we had 300 members by then), plus our enthusiasm for all things 8th AAF, that he went back and formed the 8th Air Force Historical Society. John always quoted FOTE as the catalyst for the 8th AFHS. This is a great Chapter and I look forward to posting on the forum.

Gentlemen of the 'Mighty 8th AAF' - you will never be forgotten over here in East Anglia - we still remember and honour the memory of 'Our Brave Yanks' - a million thanks guys.

Ozzie
