Paul Ringheiser III, left, and Paul Ringheiser Jr., listen to a safety brief given by a crew member of a B-25J Mitchell bomber aboard Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point, N.C., May 4, 2012. Paul III's grandfather Paul Ringheiser Sr. was a flight engineer on the Marine Corps equivalent of the aircraft during World War II era. "I was in the seat where he would have sat, right below the cockpit gunner," Paul Jr. said. "That’s where the flight engineer would have sat so it was really interesting and really emotional to think 'this is what he would have gone through,'" said Paul Jr.
