509th Bombardment Group (H)CommandingCOL Calhoun "Cal" Moody Colonel Moody originally flew combat with the Halverson Project Group, destined for China, but then detoured with the task to bomb Ploesti on 12 June 1942. He took off from Egypt as a Major and a Squadron CO. He returned as a LtC and as the Group XO when the original XO found himself interned in Turkey. Cal also returned with a DFC,a Purple Heart, and a permanent limp. Six months later Moody returned to the United States to take over a new bombardment group that was taking shape - the 509th. After months of training and molding recruits into fighting men he is thrilled to be back in the Mediterranean theater. Sometimes he can be a bit grumpy, and it is because he knows that someday in the future he will need to send the men that he has grown to love back to Ploesti.
