[303rd-Talk] Liquor Still

[Mike Norris]

I just interviewed a B-17 Pilot that was stationed at Molesworth he told
me that they always got a shot of Rye Whiskey and some grape fruit juice
from the Red Cross girls after each mission. No one in his crew drank so
he got all the spares. I'll have to ask him about the stills.

Hey  Jack -
 
Thanks  for  your  perspective.
 
These  things  may  have  been  a  "private  stash."
I've  heard  from  a  couple  of  others  that  the  stills  were  very
much  a  reality.
 
Highest  Regards,
Bill
