Thing is though, they had the oldest, noisiest, crappiest planes in the entire world. These planes were so noisy that to avoid alerting the Germans hearing them on their approach (and risk facing their anti aircraft guns), these Night Witches would climb up to a certain height, coast down to German positions, drop their bombs, then climb OUT ON THE WINGS OF THE PLANE TO RESTART THEIR ENGINES IN MID AIR, then climb back in and get the the hell out of dodge. Their leader flew over 200 missions and was never captured.
I thought I'd do something a little different and list all of the comparisons between Abraham Lincoln and John F. Kennedy since there are so many coincidences. So here they are. Abraham Lincoln was elected to Congress in 1846. John F. Kennedy was elected to Congress in 1946. Abraham Lincoln was elected President in 1860. John F. Kennedy was elected President in 1960. The names Lincoln and Kennedy each contain seven letters. Both were particularly concerned with civil rights. Both wives lost their children while living in the White House. Both Presidents were shot on a Friday. Both were shot in the head. Lincoln's secretary named Kennedy, warned him not to go to the theatre. Kennedy's secretary named Lincoln, warned him not to go to Dallas. Both were assassinated by Southerners. Both were succeeded by Southerners. Both successors were named Johnson. Andrew Johnson, who succeeded Lincoln, was born in 1808. Lyndon Johnson, who succeeded Kennedy, was born in 1908. John Wilkes Booth was born in 1839. Lee Harvey Oswald was born in 1939. Both assassins were known by their three names. Both names are comprised of fifteen letters Booth ran from the theater and was caught in a warehouse. Oswald ran from a warehouse and was caught in a theater. Booth and Oswald were assassinated before their trials. I hope you found this as interesting as I did. please log in to view this image please log in to view this image
