312th Bombardment Group
"The Roarin' 20s"

Veterans & Relatives Letter

I had the honor of meeting the group in 2000, at the Dayton, Ohio reunion. It brings me great pleasure to tell you that the video tape about the 312th I recorded at that reunion is now complete!

The video is an hour and a half long, and covers the recollections of pilots & gunners about their recollections of the A-20, and the chronology of your WWII service from formation of the group, through V-J Day.

I wanted to thank all members of the 312th who allowed me to interview them, and especially the following people and friends of the group, who I have stayed in contact with for the past two years. They are: John Happy, Ed Hambelton, Mickey Sherman, Russ Stturzebecker and Rick Young. I had a wonderful time at the reunion and regret that I can not be there in person this year. I often think of your history and those of you that I had the honor of meeting in person.

Many of you already know about my website PacificWrecks.com, that deals with WWII Pacific history, locations, veterans and has a free monthly newsletter.

With all respect,

- Justin Taylan
