    The Ramblings of a WWII Bomber Pilot ( Re-Deployed Episode)

    Send us Fan MailThis week, we are joined by documentarians Frank Allen and Austin Rich as they take us on an incredible journey into the life and legacy of WWII bomber pilot Arthur Allen, the author of The Ramblings of a Bomber Pilot. We dive deep into Arthur Allen’s wartime contributions, his experiences as a bomber pilot, and how his vivid memoir became the foundation for their latest documentary. Frank and Austin share the unexpected twists that arose during the making of The Ramblings of a Bomber Pilot, including how they uncovered stories that went beyond Arthur’s memoir. One of the most emotional aspects they discuss is the tragic loss of the iconic B-17 bomber, Texas Raiders, which is featured in the documentary. We explore the historical significance of this aircraft, its role in WWII, and the devastating accident in 2022 that claimed both the plane and several lives. Tune in for a poignant conversation about preserving history, the challenges of documentary filmmaking, and the enduring stories of those who served in WWII.Support the show
