World War II Airman Reacts to Masters of the Air - Ep.1

This video features Al Couture, a 99 year old U.S. Army Air Forces veteran who served as a navigator aboard a B-24 Bomber with the 456th Bombardment Group during World War II. We had the privilege of sitting down with Al to watch the first episode of “Masters of the Air” and record his thoughts and reactions to the series, and how it compared to his experiences as a 19 year old bomber crewman.
