This site is dedicated to
all
B-29
flight and ground personnel who served in the Forgotten War.
We left as boys
and came back as men. Lets hope no one has to do it again.
We took a plane brand spanking new, started as strangers and came back a
crew.
We were young and slim; our backs were straight. Our eyes now dim, we
know our fate.
We had to go, a job to do. Our friends all went, we had to too.
Now years have passed and soon we'll rest. The whole world knows we did
our best.
Above the clouds our spirits will soar. When life is o'er, it’s through
the next door.
We'll join up again on another plane; take off for the heavens, a crew
again.
