“All that is left now is tiny fragments of film…”?

It’s taken me over six years to get through those tiny fragments!…. 😀

Unfortunately, I think that nearly all of the camera gun footage here came from either P-51s or P-47s. I’m pretty certain most of this is from the 1945 documentary, “The Fight For The Sky”, and is USAAF footage taken over Europe.
