Thank you my friend COL Charles Williams for making us aware that WWII era transport aircraft C-47 “That’s All, Brother” (1) has been rescued form the plane boneyard; and (2) will be participating in the 75th anniversary celebration of Operation Overlord [D-Day]
It is noteworthy and of historical significance that this "lead aircraft of the main invasion force" which dropped paratroopers into fortress Europe in June 1944 has been restored and is taking part in the events - as expected it will be used to drop paratroop re-enactors along the French coast at Normandy.
