JensenPark Posted January 7, 2010 Posted January 7, 2010 Great post and link... I knew of this story, and knew it was at the end of the war, but did not realize it was after the Hiroshima bomb. Sad it was so close to the end. Quote
BadAim Posted January 8, 2010 Posted January 8, 2010 Wow, great story. That looks like a great subject for a mini- campaign, or at least a series of missions. I'm going to file that one away for the future. I'm really impressed that the Japanese built a memorial to his bravery. That really says something. Quote
DD_Bucky Posted January 8, 2010 Posted January 8, 2010 Thanks Troop, I'm familiar with Hampton Gray's story.He was born in my hometown of Trail,and then moved to Nelson which is about an hour N. of here. Quote
