Oral History Interview with Ray Murray, April 15, 2015 transcript

Oral History Interview with Ray Murray, April 15, 2015

The National Museum of the Pacific War presents an oral interview with Ray Murray. Murray joined the Army Air Forces. Upon completing flight training at Lubbock, Texas, he graduated as a twin-engine pilot and spent the next year as an instructor. Next, he went overseas to transport supplies in the European Theater. Operating first out of Scotland, he carried anything and everything, from overcoats and tomatoes to gasoline and mail. In the whole of his career, he was only ever taken off one flight, and that was to be a trip to Paris in stormy weather. The pilot that replaced him perished, along with all 16 men aboard, after the engine caught fire. After the war, Murray remained in the service, retiring as a Lieutenant Colonel after the Cuban Missile Crisis.
