My Dad "washed out" of pilot training in WW2 because of the BT-13. On a training day he was having extreme hay fever, but they made him fly anyway. He began severe sneezing during roll out and he failed to watch his speed, at the beginning of his climb he stalled and the port wing went low and as he hit the ground the wing folded up and back. He lived but with several broken ribs and a concussion. He spent 3 weeks in the hospital and they offered him a start over, he declined and became a B-24 lower turret gunner as a tech sgt. He was shot down over Romania and spent the rest of the war in Stalag Luft 1 in Barth, Germany. He always said "Be careful what you wish for." Thanks for the tour!
