HAGERSTOWN, Md.,(WordNews.org) Nov. 4, 2011 — Leslie Monroe Sellers tells the story of his 9/11.

“The date – Sept. 11, 1944, and I was co-pilot of a B-24 Bomber that was on a mission to destroy a fuel plant in Magdeburg, Germany,” writes Sellers. “Enemy fire had taken out our #3 engine, and the tail of our airplane had been ripped off by a collision with another plane. We had no choice but to jump.”

Lt. Sellers, now 92, tells about his war experience and his plight while being hidden by the Underground, in his book, “In the Shelter of His Wings.”
