I could not find the thread for posting December PITH photos. Feel free to move this if I have missed the thread.
I received my military PITH pen from denniszoomy yesterday. Mind blowing!! I mentioned to Dennis that my Dad flew the Navy version of the B-25 in WWII. Dennis made a steampunk (although I would call it aircraft skin) Legero with nose art from a B-25 (Special Delivery) on the cap and the tail number (02242) on the barrel. The tail number is actually one of the aircraft flown off the USS Hornet as part of Doolittle's Raid in 1942 - B-25 #8. The aircraft commander (CAPT. York) flew to the Vladisvostok area after the mission as he did not have enough fuel to make it to China. The aircraft was confiscated and eventually ended up as part of the Soviet Pacific Air Force.
This is one awesome pen and will feature prominently in my collection. Thanks, Dennis
