26. I Feel Your Pain.
Tue Mar 22, 2022, 10:08 AM
Mar 2022

If my grandfather had still been alive, I would have told him that I think I might have some small appreciation for what it must have felt like when his plane’s bombardier took over flight controls from him and all he could do was sit there as flak went off or fighters flew by to strafe his B-25 - he was a bomber pilot in WW2: Absolutely no control over your situation. Hell, at least the gunners could shoot back. All he could do was sit there until the bombs dropped and he got control back.

Most terrified I’ve ever been. No control. Nothing I could do but sit there and watch.
