Steve Crosby, left, son of then-1st Lt. Harry Crosby, World War II and 100th Bomb Group navigator, shares some of his father’s dramatic memories of the Bremen mission during World War II, taken from Harry’s mission report and letters to his wife Jean, during a nose art unveiling ceremony at RAF Mildenhall, England, June 9, 2025. The nose art, “Just-A-Snappin,” displayed on a KC-135 Stratotanker belonging to the 100th Air Refueling Wing, pays homage to the crew of the World War II B-17 Flying Fortress of the same name, which included Steve’s father.
