Being a WWII history buff, I love these stories! Those men in the bombers had a lot of guts!! They all knew the odds were against them but they went anyway! Thank you all vets RIP SGT Alan Magee! You are a true hero!! Thanks again Ron for keeping the memories alive!!
Thank you Mr. Alan Magee for your service, sacrifice, and heroism 🙏 🇺🇲. Great story Ron about this veteran from the Greatest Generation. He was a very lucky guy.
I just happened to put my comment in and noticed your name. Dawn Taylor. Odd how I knew a girl by the same name, and the first time I commented, it showed up! I'm sure there's quite a few of them. Besides I'm willing you aren't from North Adams, Massachusetts. Have a good day lady.
Ron, Thank you for this story. My Mother's cousin in WW2 was in the belly turret of a B-17, and wasn't as lucky as this man. He was shot down over the Pacific, and buried at sea. He has his name on a wall, in the U.S. Manila Military Cemetery in the Phillipines. Thank you for these stories to give recognition to "Our Great Generation" .
Thank you, Alan Magee, for your heroism and service to Our Country! You and the Crew of the Snap, Crackle, Pop will forever be remembered for the ultimate sacrifice, may they all rest in peace! Ron once again another fascinating story, thank you! 🙏🙏🙏
My Dad was in AAF WWII and has exact type headstone. My dad died in 1964 due to service connected injuries . We lost a lot of good men at that theater. God bless 🙌 🙏
My cousin was shot down 3rd of Sept 1943 he was in mischief maker and held pow in Munich. They rode the plane down. He was a navigator bomber. Thank you for giving tribute to this brave man
Man I couldn't imagine 14,000 feet is a full minute so he was in free fall for over 90 seconds. Average is 200 feet per second. Plenty of time to talk to God! Amazing story
@@nancyguillette7283 girl same…I’d have died looong before hitting the ground…hell people pass out skydiving all the time. You can find videos of people doing tandem jumps and the instructor will have a passed out person strapped to their chest 😂
Fabulous account of Alan's survival, what a great save for this brave man, how many more may have had this amount of luck we shall never know, if any. RIP Sir, duty done.
Ron, that was a AWESOME video my friend, I am 68 years old and never new anything about what the coins on a grave stone. Stood for. So thank you very much. FRANK from montana.......
That was one of the most amazing stories I've heard you tell Ron! I could never get in that tiny space in a plane or sub etc. Yike! And God surely did answer his prayer 🙏 Thank you for your service and RIP 🙏 Alan. I'm sure he's met the wonderful Dr. who looked after him in the next life. Thanks Ron for sharing! You and Danny be safe. 💕
Thank you for bringing Allen’s life alive once again RIP Allen thank u for ur service sir!! Alit of people nowadays do not know about the coins on a grave so sad! Thank u again Ron we appreciate you very much!! From ohio
Hey Ron. Retired Marine Raider with many military and civilian jumps under my belt, but I also know one guy who survived falling but from a lesser height.
Omg I have no clue what I’d be thinking about. I’ve heard of a lady who fell like 30,000 feet and survived. They said she had low blood pressure so that could’ve been why. And then hearing that he was hanging from a train station, if you’ve seen the longest day it reminds me of a paratrooper who got stuck at a church hanging there with his parachute. My grandpa in wwii was on a bomber when it started to go down. Next thing he knew it he was at one end of the runway all covered in ash and the plane was crashed at the other end. His guardian angel was at play there
This was a truly great story on Alan M..thanks for sharing this story with Ron. And thank you for your service Mr Alan M..Rip Alan.. 😇🙏.🥾🥾🪖⚔️🗡️. Safe travels Ron and stay safe!! 💕💕✈️✈️....i sent this video of yours Ron bc he was interested in this bc it's United States army 🪖🥾🥾...he is retired now and leaving to me here Arkansas end of next week during next weekend... sent this to my army boyfriend
Thank you for your service! I live in the land of the free because of you the brave! Rest in peace and I pray you are now home safe with your family and comrades in arms in the loving arms of our Lord. 🙏🏻
Thanks for sharing this story! My Uncle is 100! He was one of the plane mechanics during WW2! His crew worked on Slow But Sure! He is a very wonderful piece of our history! If you ever get the chance go to the Airborne Museum in Pooler GA! It’s right outside of Savannah! You won’t be disappointed!😊
What an incredible story! Just goes to show ya that God doesn't always save the best for last, but he sure does listen when we pray. I'm thinking that maybe passing out might have been a blessing in disguise too because it could have helped soften the blow somewhat or at least enough to survive it. Either way I would call it a miracle from above. He even lived a pretty long life after such traumatic injuries done to his body. Just amazing! Love the snap, crackle, pop and the logo on the plane too! RIP Sir and thank you for your service. You definitely went above and beyond the call of duty
My grandfather was rejected by the military when he tried to sign up, so he went to work for Fisher Body in Memphis Tennessee making wings for the B25 and B29 bombers .
What an amazing story!! Just blows me away to think Alan Magee survived and lived a full life after that incident! I love these kinds of stories Ron, and you tell them so well. Rest in peace Alan Magee, a hero and brave man! 🙏
You mentioned general Patton that was my great grandpa's kin..My great grandpa's middle name is the only difference between both of their names From each other... My great grandpa was born in the late 1891.. so my grandma's last name maiden name was patton she was born in 1913..
My dad was a tail gunner in ww2, 459th bombardment group-758 squadron. You can read their story in a book called Coffee Tower, a history of the 459th by Lyle McCarthy. Very interesting book. My dad's name was Joseph Dark Kelsey and there are pictures of him and the crew he flew with. Met a lot of them when they would visit my dad,years later.
Thank you Ron for sharing that Amazing Story. God was with Allen and thank you for your service. Allen God bless you and rest in peace. 🙏Take care Ron 🙏❤
I recently discovered your channel and I think its fantastic, I have been watching many of your videos from the past, I noticed to was wearing a UofA shirt and or hat and that gor my attantion since I live in Tucson. Cheers and keep up the great work. - Stephen
Now he is my definition of a hero. Ron thank you for the history lesson and above all thank you for honoring this man with his story. This happened before my time but I would give anything to have met him and had a nice long conversation with him. 🙏🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 Thank you for your service sir 🫡
Amazing story! I discovered your channel about 5 months ago, and I am trying to catch up! Really enjoy all of your videos. Especially enjoyed the Haserot Angel story, which I watched yesterday. Absolutely beautiful sculpture, and you had great video of this. Will look at your WWII plane restoration today. I think that is on your other site. So glad you survived the incident. Thank you for what you do!
God definitely heard his prayers and even had him land where the skilled doctor was available and who saved his life. Rest In Peace Alan Magee. Thank you for your service! You are a Hero to all of us. ♥️

I can't imagine what they all went through and then falling 20,000 feet. Thank you for our freedoms.
Thank you Mr. Alan Magee for your service, sacrifice, and heroism 🙏 🇺🇲. Great story Ron about this veteran from the Greatest Generation. He was a very lucky guy.
Not luck ,God
God had nothing to do with it. It’s an act of science. How he landed. Get real
There was something there to break his fall
From a Military Brat…. Thank you Sir for your brave service.
Never a dull story from Uncle Ron! Very interesting one. Men like Alan are the true Hero's!
Thank you, but it's also true. Ron telling someones life story is 100 times more interesting then a lot of the shows that are on tv nowadays!
ty, inspiring
God bless our military. This was a truly amazing story, and may Alan rest in peace.
I just happened to put my comment in and noticed your name. Dawn Taylor. Odd how I knew a girl by the same name, and the first time I commented, it showed up! I'm sure there's quite a few of them. Besides I'm willing you aren't from North Adams, Massachusetts. Have a good day lady.
