- A Waist Gunner's Story, excerpts from a diary of Everitte Barbee's World War II B-24 missions in Europe.

In 1943, Everett Barbee, grandson of Isaiah Grayson Barbee and son of Cader Barbee, was called from his Richlands home and rushed into World War II. Just like thousands of young Americans from 1941 to 1945, he found himself in situations for which he had hardly prepared. With limited training, he and his group was rushed over the skies of Europe. These excerpts from Everette Barbeeā€™s diary - A Waist Gunners Story was published in the Jacksonville Daily News in February 2004.
