A good friend of mine, M/SGT William Nutter who is a 91 year old WWII vet, is laid up with a broken pelvis and rib, plus a punctured lung. He fell off a 12 foot ladder a few weeks ago and is slowly recuperating. Pain is wicked from what I was told lastnight by a lady at a facility where he's staying to heal and get therapy. He needs our thoughts and prayers to get him up and back out there with us.
Besides, I'm gonna chew out his little butt for pulling a stunt like this when he had all kinds of help from those of us that are close by, and didn't need to get on that 12 foot ladder at his age. Why he was up there I've no idea, but he needs our help getting him on the road to recovery. And he will be missed next Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday for our Wings of Freedom Tour here at KILG.
A little background:
M/SGT Nutter was with the 91st BG 835th Air Engineering Maintainence and Tech Services of the 8th Army Air Force in England. He received the Bronze Star for his services, and was inducted into the Delaware Hall of Heros on 2-19-00. Bill was the one that fixed the major problems with the B-17s when no one else could. He is one supper fellow and can he tell some great stories.
