The story of Glenn Jones and RG Simmons, two Air Corps airmen, is one of camaraderie, loyalty, and sacrifice. Close friends who served on the same bomber, they made a pact to care for each other's family in case either one did not return. Tragically, during their 124th mission, their aircraft suffered a critical mechanical failure. Glenn, acting as the pilot, heroically kept the plane steady, enabling the crew to evacuate. In this heroic act, Glenn lost his life. True to his word, RG Simmons later married Glenn's wife, symbolizing the bond they shared. The uniforms displayed here, along with other artifacts, serve as a testament to their story and the undying bond of friendship formed in the crucible of war.
