G'Day all,
The full story on this initiative (including all of Mike's A-25/SB2C identities will appear in Vol 9., No.5 of Classic Wings magazine. Mike tells the full story on how he became involved with Helldivers - it really was his destiny!
For the record, the Barber Point, Hawaii Helldivers were not recovered by Questmasters and remained on site until relatively recently. Mike bought the wrecks but one was scrapped, along with some other wrecks, before he could get there to rescue it (yes....it's still happening). Bear in mind that this was a US Navy facility. He explains it all in the story.
Cheers,
Graham
