First C-82 Packet Transatlantic Flight
'Hello All, My Uncle Bill(COL William F Mandt III USAF, now deceased) made the first ever trans-Atlantic flight in a C-82 Packet. I visited him at Fort Bragg and he took me aboard a C-82 and the then new C-119. Does anyone here remember or know of him? Peter Smith, San Diego petefmsd@hotmail.com'
