ABP's A-20 Impossible Squadron
An amazing thing happened yesterday. Our Photo of the Day featured an A-20 attack bomber because Glenn Spencer got a call from a supporter who happened to be an A-20 attack bomber in World War II.
Later in the day Glenn got a call from another supporter. Two calls from supporters in one day. The amazing thing is that this caller was also an A-20 bomber pilot in World War II! He flew in the Philippines and was shot down and lived with Filipino guerillas.
It is unusual for two supporters to call while Glenn was answering the phone (Melissa was out) - on the same day. It is also unusual for the callers to be World War II vets. It is unbelievable for them both to have flown the same fighter - bomber! When told of the first caller, the second pilot said it was possible they were in the same cadet class!!
"The probability of this happening is so low as to be unbelievable," Spencer, who studied mathematical statistics in college, observed.
