This episode is Part Twenty-Nine of the epilogue for Stanley's letters, "Dearest Ones," that he wrote to his family throughout the Second World War.  Michael G. Sievers, the writer, producer and creator of "The Silver King's War" podcast series, reviews his father's war & writing during February 1945 in Northern France.  Stanley is promoted to First Lieutenant after thirteen months as an Air Corps officer. His joy is tempered by the news that "Festi's Boys," his Barksdale Army Air Base training crew, did not return from a late February mission.  They are Missing In Action.
