B-26s at Dodge City Army Airfield - 05/23/2008 09:28:50 PM
Are there any B-26 crew members or ground personel that were stationed at Dodge City Army Airfield at Dodge City, Kansas.  Maybe you can tell us what it was like to instruct, fly and maintain the B-26 at Dodge City and overseas in battle conditions.  Phillip

Phillip; there are abundant information available online for at least some of the themes you want highlighted. At this site many firsthand accounts are accessible, including combat diaries: http://www.b-26mhs.org/index.html
