I don't know if this will stir you like it did me. I hope it does.

The album listed at the end is carried by Amazon but is not currently available. Click here. It is apparently available from other sources, however.

Ace - Yes, that is indeed a stirring video and I know you can feel it more than most of us but we can all relate to it somehow. (I have only to think of my brother in a B-17 during those many missions over Germany.) The music and singing synchronized well with the photography. I loved it - thanks!

As I watched this movie, I remembered my grandfather, who was not an Aviator but a soldier Bersagliere of Vittorio Veneto in World War 1. He was decorated with the medal of honor of Knight of the Italian Armed Body of the heroes of war.
He was so proud to serve his country and I saw the same look in aviator proud of the movie. Freedom is a gift that gets with heroes like these, who do only their duty but who have so much love in the soul and for the Grace of God they are blessed in memory forever !

Now my grandfather rest in peace in the cemetery of the Italian Heroes in Rome, he will be happy because he is with his friends of the trenches.

That's wonderful, Ace. I love it when vintage planes fly with the modern jets. Thank you for posting the video for us to view.
