My sister is selling my father’s flight suit and other historical memorabilia on EBay, I find this rather upsetting. It’s under PenniesfromHeaven, Col Harold “Shorty” Ostrander flew Gypsygirl with 8th Air Force during WWII?

Maj Kim Patterson Please think about gifting these items for a tax donation to Victory for Veterans Foundation and our Museum. Check it out: https://www.victoryforveterans.org/museum I can provide you with the address, you just need to mail them there and provide a fair market value for the certificate we can give you for the donation. You have my number, but here it is again. [login to see] . Thanks for taking that into consideration Kim. The choice is yours.
Good Aviation & Veterans Museum | Warriors For Life
We have taken The Good Aviation & Veterans Museum under our wing at VFV to bring this classic, WWII Museum to the general public and to honor our Veterans and Military personnel. This was a strategic move on our part to not only preserve a great piece of Veteran history but to also grow our ability to be self-sufficient.

SGT David A. 'Cowboy' Groth I would love to donate them. If I can get them. So far, nothing has swayed her resolve to sell.

Maj Kim Patterson - That is a bummer - let's wait it out and if she doesn't sell them make the recommendation to have them donated for a tax deduction.

Maj Kim Patterson contact COL Mikel J. Burroughs and see if there is room in the museum. Perhaps she would be willing to donate it?

I have asked for a few items. I bought other family heirlooms in the past. She speaks in terms of money.
