The ball turret gunner gun-ner has the best view of the town, and supposedly he shot down as many enemy airplanes as any gunner on the airplane. During gunnery practice, each gunner's ammunition was dipped in a different color of paint, so that it left a mark in the towed sleeve target. The target sleeve was towed about 700 feet behind the tow plane, so earlier gunners were told to lead the target by aiming at the tail of that airplane. Then they would hit the target. But one ball turret gunner didn't realize that his lead was now calculated by a computer sight, which took into account the lead, so he put quite a few rounds into the tow plane. A couple of motors in the ball turret maneuver it. Handles Han-dles that sit up by the gunner's ears move the turret upwards, sideways, and so on. To turn the turret, you hit the handles the way you want to go. A foot pedal frames the target, wing to wing, and a computer computes com-putes the lead. The triggers are on the end of your fingers, and, sealed in the ball, you are moving the ball all the time. If you put the ball forward, you are looking straight down through your feet.

Editor's note: This is the second of a series about Bob Peterson, Pe-terson, of Pleasant Grove. After being washed out of pilot training, Peterson was sent to Lowry Field, in Denver, for six months of armorer training (handling ammunition and turret down, and once you were down, you could retract the ball back into the fuselage. We flew a new airplane to Cerignola, Italy, and we also took with us some new equipment, equip-ment, including the new oxygen oxy-gen masks. The old masks had a rebreather type of bag below the mask, but the new ones just fit on the face, and the microphone mi-crophone was in the face piece of the mask. The new mask was much less cumbersome. We also took some of the new electrical suits but we had to guard those with our lives. We lived in tents out in an olive grove, away from the airfield, in case it was bombed. But the mud got so churned up in the wintertime that the tents were eventually moved down to the end of the flight line, though I don't think that was a very smart move, even though the Germans had been pretty well chased out of Italy by that time. Originally, our tent had a dirt floor, but we scrounged to make a good floor. The old sergeant ser-geant said to us, "Well, I'll be gone for an hour and a half." That's when we went down and loaded up some crates for flooring. We had a foxhole right in front of the tent, and we also rigged up a barrel of water for washing facilities.

The wooden floor had knotholes, so he would put peanuts around the holes to get the mice to come out. Then he'd shoot them with a .45. So we had quite a flew splinters all over the floor. To heat our tent, we built a makeshift stove, using both 100 octane airplane and diesel fuel, which was safer. We piped the fuel into a barrel in which we had put bricks. Then we ignited the fuel as it dripped onto the bricks. One time, when we were using airplane gas, we let too much gas into the stove. When we lit it, there was an explosion explo-sion that raised the tent about four inches off the ground. We ordered 125 stoves for the group, but by the time they got to us, only 15 of 20 were left. Headquarters and everybody every-body else peeled them off. The officers were also living in tents. We had an Italian tent boy who would take care of most of our duties. He would take our uniforms down to the Italian Ital-ian ladies, who would wash them in the creek by beating them with rocks. As a result, our uniforms wore out fairly fast. The Italians were in such terrible shape that they would take coffee home and distill it to get the sugar out of it. TJ farms 12 oz.
