Military > popular all-time > Here's my dad, Ned Wells, on a friend's Harley in Parkville, MD, on March 30, 1943. He was up there from Clemmons, NC, working in the Glenn L. Martin Aircraft Company (Middle River Plant) in nearby Baltimore, building B-26 Marauder bomber engines in the early days of the war. Ned was inducted into the Army from Baltimore in the summer of 1944 and eventually became a heavy machine gunner in Patton's Third Army in the 26th "Yankee" Infantry Division. Outstanding riding apparel.
