World War II aviator remembers 'do or die' on D-Day
Quote:
"It was bedlam," Homer K. Buerlein recalls of his view from 3,500 feet of the June 6, 1944, invasion of Normandy.
For Buerlein, a B-26 medium bomber pilot with the U.S. Army Air Corps 391st Bombardment Group, D-Day was just the 14th of his 58 missions, but one he'd never forget.
