Title	Oral history interview with Eugen Wohl recorded on 2009 Jan. 21
Description	Interview conducted by Leslie Koons. Eugene Wohl tried to enlist in the U.S. Navy for air craft training, but was not accepted. He instead was drafted into Army Air Force in 1943. After undergoing extensive training as a navigator, he joined a crew as part of the 388th Bomb Group, which was located out of a base in Knettishall, England. As part of this crew Wohl flew 35 missions, which he describes during the interview. On a few occasions, the plane was hit, and members of the crew were injured. Wohl also describes the day to day life of the crew on the base when they weren’t on missions. He returned to the United States in 1945, and was discharged out of Fort Devens, Mass.
