again"
The boys are modest and soft
spoken and we'll liked by their
crew mates and officers accord
ing to a story written about
them in the 'Thunder-Bird," the
camp weekly.
They were promoted to pri-
vate first class on May 80. Both
made sharpshooter when quail

quiet, but determined airmen
and really like to fly
Early this month they were
promoted to corporal. Still the
modest soldier, said Ray, II saw

as Corp. Diebel, but l didn't
think it could be me-"
LOCATE CHUM
One of their chums, Donald
Hupp, son of Mr.. and Mrs.
George Hupp of North Park ave-
nue., joined at the same time as
the Diebels. He originally went
to another field, but the three
met at Las Vegas and are now
stationed together.
During their one furlough
since entering the service, the
boys toured the plane factory
with their father. At that time
they viewed the mechaniSmS,
not with the wide-eyed wonder
of the small boy, but with the
experienced eye of the airman
who knows his ship and has
faith in it.
Now they're anxious to get on
with the business of completing
their training so they can try
out their craftsmanship and
guns on the enemy.

Twin Brothers Ready
For Battle i'm BIZ

EAST DETROIT-From the
time they were small boys the
Diebel twins, Elmer R. and
Charles r., better known as Ray
and Bob, have been looming
around in imaginary airplnes.
1t was therefore, not surprising
when the two boys Joined the
Army Air Corps together. To
them it was the most exciting
of the services and even though
they couldn't be pilots, at least
they would be given an oppor-
tunity to fly.
They had just passed their
eighteenth birthday when they
signed their names on the dotted
line Jan. % to start their ca
reers in Uncle Sans airforce.
The fact that their father is SUI
pervisor of aircraft at Budd
Manufacturing Company, where
the great air birds are made,
probably had some bearing on
their choice. Reasoned the boys,
IF Dad can build them, we will
fly EN-"
They are now at Rapid City
Army Air Base in South Dakota
putting the finishing touches on
their training as aerial marks
men and will soon take their
places as regular members of a
8-17 crew. Corporals, both of
them, Ray is waist gunner and
Bob is doing his duties as ball
turret gunner.
Prior to their graduation from
East Detroit High School in the
1943 June class, the Diebels
were in the same class, their
marks were only a fraction
apart, they went around with
the same group, liked the same
movies and the same ball games.
Their best recreation was found
in hunting and fishing trips with
their father in the upper part of
the state. Their parents, Mr.. and
Mrs. Elmer r. Diebel of 225l3
Lambrect avenue, have always
been great pals of their only
children. Seeing the twins and
their mother, one would be apt
to mistake her for sister, from
her youthful appearance.
Following their lifetime prac-
tise Of always sticking together,
the boys wanted TO stay together
in the service. At one time it
looked as though the Diebels
would be separated. When at
keesler Field, they were placed
in different crews, Ray went to
see the captain and they were
soon back in a ship together.
At Las Vegas, they had their
first flying. Bob finds it quite
comfortable for his Isl pounds
and 5 feet, 10 inches in height in
the ball turret. He is the taller
Of the two by half an inch but
lacks the weight of Ray by six
pounds.
