Subj: Timberline Davis' new book... ~13~



 

     Hello Michael, 

                  The story part of my book ~13~ is complete. Now I am getting all the pictures 

                  together for the pages. Carol Tallichet is sending me some pictures from Calif. 

                  The pictures you sent were great. Thank you. I need a picture of a Nissen hut, 

                   (or Quonset) and a picture of a 100 BG sign. Here is another mission we flew...

                   Not on the list you sent me. 

                   9 Apr 45 Munich Airfield. Aircraft, 297 X 28. B SQDN. Radio- B channel Poobah. 

                   I don't know what our first missions were. 

                   Thanks again for all your help. 

                                                              Sincerely, 

                                                                            Farrell "Timberline" Davis
