War Vet



Mr. Nicholson, 90 years old, served in WWII and the Korean War as a crew chief on the B24 and B17 for nine years. I spent a few hours with Mr. Nicholson and a handful of other vets on Friday at the Air Classic Museum and had a blast. These guys are amazing! The stories and photos they showed me are unforgettable. Mr. Nicholson was also responsible for many of the painting you see on the old fighter planes. He painted Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, the Arkansas Travel or, and many others.
