Idaho Observer: Deathbed confessions, photos support claims that George H. Scherf(f), Jr., was the 41st U.S. president
Bush piloted one of four Grumman TBM Avengers of VT-51 that attacked the Japanese installations on Chichijima.[7] His crew for the mission, which occurred on September 2, 1944, included Radioman Second Class John Delaney and Lt.(jg) William White.[4] During their attack, the Avengers encountered intense anti-aircraft fire; Bush's aircraft was hit by flak and his engine caught fire. Despite the fire in his aircraft, Bush completed his attack and released bombs over his target, scoring several damaging hits.[4] With his engine ablaze, Bush flew several miles from the island, where he and one other crew member of the TBM bailed out;[8] the other man's parachute did not open.[4] Bush waited for four hours in an inflated raft, while several fighters circled protectively overhead, until he was rescued by the submarine USS Finback, on lifeguard duty.[4] For the next month, he remained in Finback and participated in the rescue of other aviators. Several of those shot down during the attack were executed, and their livers were eaten by their captors.[9] A radio operator from the Japanese unit that shot down Bush plane was American citizen Nobuaki Iwatake, a Japanese American who had settled in Japan six months before Pearl Harbor and was drafted into the Japanese Imperial Army in 1943.[10] This experience shaped Bush profoundly, leading him to ask, "Why had I been spared and what did God have for me?"[11]
Some of the most insane shit I've seen posted on here in a long time...
Union Pacific Railroad will be part of this week's funeral procession for President George H.W. Bush, who died Nov. 30 at the age of 94.
Following funeral and memorial services in Washington, D.C., and Houston, Bush will be transported by the funeral train from Spring to College Station, Texas, on Thursday.
The funeral train will leave UP's Westfield Auto Facility at 1 p.m. Thursday and should arrive at College Station by 3:25 p.m., UP officials said in a press release.
College Station is the location of the George H.W. Bush Presidential Library, where Bush will be laid to rest.
The funeral train will include UP No. 4141 George Bush Locomotive, which was unveiled Oct. 18, 2005, during a ceremony near the library and museum on the Texas A&M University campus.
The custom-painted unit incorporates the colors of the Air Force One used during Bush's years as president, from 1989 to 1992. Bush was the nation's 41st president, hence the locomotive bears the number 4141.
The SD70ACe locomotive measures 15 feet 11 inches tall and weighs 420,000 pounds with a full tank of diesel fuel, according to UP's website.
Westfield Auto Facility is closed to the public, UP officials said.
