The man with the darker pants on in the front row is my grandfather, Manny Fisher. He was a navigator on the Blue Dreams with their original crew that flew all 25 missions, including the very first bomb run over Berlin, Germany.

My father Kenneth T. McFarland is kneeling on the bottom right. He was the pilot of Blue Dreams. I am Nona Gail whose birth was commemorated by the stork bringing the baby. My father is 95.
