Bruner publishes book exploring who the soldiers of Bomber Mountain were in life

Jim Gatchell Memorial Museum Director Sylvia Bruner made an appearance on Sheridan Media’s Public Pulse to talk about her new book Wyoming Bomber Crash of 1943.

A historical work, the book tells the story of the 1943 accidental crash of a B-17 bomber and her crew that went missing over Wyoming late during the night of June 28.

The site of the crash was discovered two years later by two cowboys.
