A good friend died, he was 93. lived a good life. He graduated from high scool in 1941 and went to work at Convair aircraft, in Ft, Worth. We called it the Bomber Plant, It was one of the factories that produced B24s, He joined the Army or was drafted in 1942. He became a pilot on the B24, flew 22 bombing raids over Germany. Got out of the military as a Lt. Colonel. He went to school on the GI bill and got a Phd. Taught meterology at UTA. After retiring he spent his time experimenting with pecans. He descovered a pecan in a fellow perfessor back yard that he experinented with. He called it the Podsednick. they were almost 3 inches long and hulled 2 or 3 weeks before any other pecan. He grafted a couple trees for me but the bores killed them. Not an ordinary man. A son of Imigrants that worked in the mines.
