This page from the 1979 Air Apache Journal, the newsletter of the 345th Bombardment Group Association, illustrates how WWII veterans and their wartime international allies maintained lifelong friendships decades after the war. The featured story follows Ross and Peg Tully of Armidale, Australia - Ross having served as an Australian liaison officer with the group's 500th Squadron - on a round-the-world journey to reunite with American comrades. The accompanying memorial roster reflects the association's practice of honoring members who had passed away, preserving the bonds forged in combat long after the guns fell silent. Project: 218101
