They paid dearly...

My 96 year old bro in law is truly our hero... Based in Naples, many missions... Small fellow, but tougher than nails, parents were Portuguese immigrants from the Azores, but he fit the belly ball turret or the nose turret as well... Sadly, now lost his sight, most of his hearing, but a life well lived, 6 kids, many grandkids...

Short of a Marine storming a beach, bomber dudes were the baddest, IMO.
