"MORGANTON, Ga. -- Take one young Metro Atlantan, add an artifact few people knew existed from World War II, and add a gracious act from this generation to the Greatest Generation. It all adds up to one beautiful act. A fan of the B-29 Superfortress primarily flown during World War II, 30-year-old Trevor McIntyre of Morganton, Ga. had long sought collectibles that had to do with the plane. One night on E-Bay, he saw something new: letters from an estate sale, written during the war by an airman who flew on the plane. "I decided I would place a bid," McIntyre recalled. "The next morning I woke up to find myself the owner of 150 letters."
