From model aircraft maker to B-17 pilot: WWII veteran shares life stories

Retired 1st Lt. John A. Clark, 98, 100th Bomb Group veteran and World War II survivor, shares stories of his life before he served in the U.S. Army Air Corps during an interview at the 100th Bomb Group reunion in Dallas, Texas, Oct. 28, 2021. The reunion, held every other year in a different location around the U.S., brings together the few remaining survivors, their families, and Airmen from the 100th Air Refueling Wing at Royal Air Force Mildenhall, England. The 100th ARW takes its heritage and the infamous "Square D" from the 100th BG. (U.S. Air Force photo by Karen Abeyasekere)
