Work in Progress

Dr. Blackwell invites you to help in creating his next book.

There are two works in progress you may find of interest.

In my volunteer work as Korean War Historian for the 307th Bombardment Group Association https://307bg.org/category/Korean-war/ I am producing a series of videos narrating the achievements of one of America’s most accomplished band of aerial warriors. 1st versions of videos are available here. We expect to tell this story in eight episodes. I welcome your input.

My second project is a book on a more personal story. My uncle was Radio Operator on the first B-29 shot down by a MiG-15 fighter over Korea in November 1950. His is a tale of extraordinary virtue by an ordinary person. This will be a work of creative nonfiction.

Feel free to contact me for any input, comments, or advice you wish to offer for either or both projects.
