This is episode five of the final review of Stanley's War. It's January 1944 and The Silver King graduates from Bomber School in Carlsbad, New Mexico. He's now a 2nd Lt. in the U. S. Army Air Corps. Then it's five months for advance training at Columbia Army Air Base in South Carolina. As the allies invade Europe on D-
Day with Operation Overload in early June, Stanley has orders to report at Barksdale Army Air Base in Shreveport, Louisiana, for B-26 training. He now has the ride he wants: The famed twin-engine bomber, the Martin Marauder.
