Meet the Left waist gunner of the B-17 Mrs Geezil
Hello Gent’s,
Well my WONDERFUL wife bought me a mannequin for my Father’s day gift.
So as I promised I would share my display with all that were interested .
I did it up to recreate what Phil Chaperon told me he wore on the day they were shotdown on a mission to Schweinfurt on April 13th 1944 . These are the M1938 coveralls I just picked up.
I have a set of WW2 low quarter boots coming to put some shoes on those feet. The second pic is my display to Honor my Great Aunt and Phil.
Meet Phil!
