The Sherrill family poses in the early 1950s. The Sherrills lived at Fairfield-Suisun Air Force Base (now Travis AFB), California, on Aug. 5, 1950, when a B-29 Superfortress crashed, killing 19 and wounding more than 100 others. Among the injured was Frances Mae Sherrill, left, whose leg was amputated after it was hit by shrapnel. (Courtesy photo/Jerry Sherrill)
