S. A. Pilot Earned Respect For Doughboy In Med Theater
Lieutenant McDonald, a Mitchell bomber pilot with the Fifth Army in the Mediterranean, describes seven days with ground troops, noting exchanges between air and ground forces improved cooperation. From Naples to Rome, he faced front-line patrols, slept in foxholes, and endured cold rations as June 6 marked the beachhead assault. He witnessed a German Tiger tank and the festive postfront streets of Rome, with grateful civilians greeting American airmen. McDonald, son of Mr. and Mrs. T. W. McDonald of Jackson Street, enlisted in 1940 and went overseas in 1944.
