The depression and the rough times it inflicted on the Turner family is also retold. <P> Highlights from his 26 years of military service in the airforce, revolving around some B-24 missions flown in Europe during WWII, are recounted. There is also an exciting tale of when he and his crew members had to ditch their B-29 due to mechanical trouble and they wound up face-to-face with island natives. <P> Finally, check out the genealogy section containing pedigree charts, family fact sheets, photo graphs, and short stories about our ancestry. <P> I hope you enjoy the stories as much as I have enjoyed hearing them!<BR> </td> </tr> </table> <CENTER> <TABLE VALIGN="TOP" WIDTH=600> <TR> <TD COLSPAN="3"> <TABLE BORDER="0"> <TR> <TD> <HR ALIGN=center NOSHADE WIDTH=530><BR> </TD> </TR> </TABLE> <P> <TABLE BORDER="0"> <TR> <TD WIDTH=45><A HREF="hgearly1.htm"><IMG SRC="images/Flag04.gif" ALT="Flag" WIDTH="45" HEIGTH="45" BORDER="1"></A> </TD> <TD WIDTH=25>&nbsp;&nbsp;</TD> <TD WIDTH=530><FONT SIZE="-1"><A HREF="hgearly1.htm"><B>Who is Harlyn Glen Turner?</B></A></FONT><BR> <FONT SIZE="-1">Find out more about Harlie and his family origin and background.
