The Stigler-Brown Incident Animation

“If I ever see or hear of you shooting at a man in a parachute, I will shoot you myself.“ Those were the words that came to Franz Stigler’s mind when he saw the badly damaged B-17 that was somehow still flying. To him, that plane limping back to England with its wounded crew was the same as a parachute. This story was kept classified for the remainder of the war and only came to light when the two pilots managed to find each other again in 1990.
