Bob Hope Show on BENNINGTON - Dec 1966


Funny I was setting in church this morning and the choir sang silent night and I was instantly back on the flight deck in December 1966, I could almost feel the wind in my face as I thought back to those days. Anita bryant brought tears to my eyes as she sang that song, a time I will never forget as long as I live.

Bill, one of the highlights for me, (besides kissing Miss World, of course) was when Anita Bryant and the cast sang "Silent Night." It was a very touching moment, and since we were all thinking of our families back home enjoying Christmas without us, it was also a very sad moment. I don't think there was a dry eye on the flight deck. Here's the picture of that special moment.
