I met Hoosier the second day at New River. […] I disliked him at first. […] He seemed surly, too, with his square strong figure, tow hair and blue eyes— […] But I was too inexperienced to see that the surliness was but a front for his being scared, like all of us. The immobile face was a façade; the forced downward curve of the mouth a hastily erected defense against the unknown. With time and friendship, that mouth would curve in a different direction, upward in a grin that was pure joy.
- Robert Leckie: Helmet For My Pillow

If you don't follow the 100th Bomb Group Foundation on Facebook then you are missing out on some great historical information associated with Masters of the Air. The one post of theirs that really hit close for me was this one:
Tumblr media
"Sammy, better known as Sam Hurry, played by Alfie Tempest. Sam Hurry grew up near Thorpe Abbotts and was a frequent visitor to the 351st Bomb Squadron. “On the base, I was unofficially adopted by the American servicemen who welcomed me,” he wrote. “They shared a variety of experiences and insights broader than the small village school could provide.” Sam was also allowed to assist with various jobs on base including washing down dispersal points after an aircraft left for a mission. “The hardstand was covered with 100-octane aviation fuel,” Sam recalled, “and we would be given a lighted rag to throw onto the concrete which immediately burst into flames, burning all the oil and grease off and leaving the area clean and ready for the aircraft to return.” The time after the Hundredth departed in 1945 was hard for Sam. “The silence was unnerving,” he wrote, “the atmosphere was ghostly.” It was the most difficult period of our young lives to adjust to an emptiness that was not of our making.” As an adult, Sam never forgot the veterans that he came to know during the war. “Thorpe Abbotts had etched itself into my heart,” he wrote, and when he found that local people had started an effort to restore the Control Tower as a 100th Bomb Group Memorial Museum, he joined them.
In 1979, the 100th Bomb Group Association elected Sam an honorary member and he attended five reunions in the US. Sam Hurry passed away in 2014, and his story lives on. (Photos courtesy of Apple TV+ and Malcolm Finnis)

12, 16, 18 !! <3
12: Which character do you have the least in common with?
i'd say georgia! just the way she carries herself and goes through life is so different than how i am haha
16: What would your characters be for Halloween?
i think georgia would go as a black cat, and pollie would be like ... a scarecrow lol
18: What’s easier, dialogue or description?
dialogue! for me, it's so easy to slip into a character's voice and tone

i think i'm most proud of how the story has developed over time - it started off very simple, but it's gained a lot of layers over time!

my biggest challenge has honestly been having the time to write. chiyc has been on hiatus for a while now just because life is crazy :/
