[303rd-Talk] ? Who is Old Segundo ?

[Guy Schlegel]

Bill,
I too recieved the post card in the mail last week. I went to the website to 
check it out. It looks like a legit production company that does mostly 
documentaries about various branches of the military during WWII. Most of 
the video's they have to offer deal with various groups of the 8th AF. I'm 
still contemplating whether to purchase the video of the 303rd until I got 
more info from this list. You beat me to it!

I'm sure the Assc. in some way deemed the project worthwhile and wupplied a 
mailing list of us members. Just waiting to hear what others have to say 
about it.

Only the Best!!
