Facts “known” at odds with other “Facts”
There’s a lot of Veterans Air Express information “out there.” Lots need cross-checking, verification, discussion from World War II vets, ex-Army Air Corps and families, aviation buffs, research librarians. This website shares the known & need to know. You’re invited.
Thomas E Cowart. International Flight Engineer. Walker Recruit.
In 1942 & ’43 the Army Air Corps turned Thomas E. Cowart from a farm boy into an aircraft mechanic and later a flight engineer. He flew the world as part of an Air Transport group led by Captain Cooper Walker. And after the war, Walker encouraged Cowart to join him at Veterans Air Express and fly the world again. Thomas tells me his vivid-memory story. Come meet him.
