Nice recall of military glider history. One of my good friends and fellow glider pilot Bennie Flowers was in the AAC and taught glider flying in the Army, then was a C47 captain that towed gliders during WWII. Sitting in the hangar and listening to some
of the guys stories was something I will never forget. OBTP

The Silent Wings Museum at the Lubbock airport, Texas is worth a visit
if you're ever in the area.
