That's amazing! To think that film survived all these years and now this old vet gets to see what he lived through. Simply amazing.
 
Thanks for sharing, Crackerjack.

Nice!  Thank you for sharing this wonderful and amazing story.  Motivates me to take a better look at my Daddy's films; you never know what you might find.
