"We lost a chance at the trucks of course, but they had turned out their lights, anyhow," Brundrett said.

The area covered was south and west of Wonsan. In eerie contrast was Saturday's afternoon flight. For two hours we criss-crossed over roads, railways and towns which lay in silent, snowy beauty. Over Deserted World Perhaps a score of friendly planes appeared, but no enemy. There was always with us the strahge feeling of flying over a deserted world.

At one place we swooped so low that we counted footprints in the snow in front of some huts. There was no sign of life or habitation. No smoke rose from any building anywhere. The F-51 is a single-seater plane, but room was made for this passenger by relocating some radio equipment. With knees up to chin and helmet pressing the canopy, I felt like a bird in a glass-topped electric oven.

Your ride free to your place of worship." Bronstein said he plans to offer he free rides each Saturday and Sunday from now on.

Since he bought his own cab after being discharged from the Army in 1944, Bronstein has used it to further causes he believes in.
