Uncle Jack

The 8th Air Force suffered 30,000 airmen lost or missing during WWII—more casualties than the Navy and Marines combined. Only one airman in three survived the air battle in Europe . If you were lucky enough to survive 30 missions (like Uncle Jack), you became a member of the "Lucky Bastards Club."

If you have a sharp eye, you may have noted that the B-17 in the video is a late model that had a remote controlled gun turret in the nose rather thantwo manually operated 50 cal machine guns.

Let us never forget what Uncle Jack and these brave men did for our country.

Gary is one of a few actors who has supported the troops and done a lot for veterans.

Support him.

This is great! Sit back and relax and enjoy a piece of American history.

It may even bring a tear or two to your eyes.

Wish we had more people in the entertainment industry like Gary Sinise.
