lend lease: Houlton Maine farmer helps tow american war planes into Canada! - 03/31/07 07:50 PM
 
John Deer tractors with Houlton farmers at the controls carefully but quickly wisk helldiver planes into Canada which had been flown into Houlton Army Air Base which is on the News Brunswick border.  Neutrality treaties with Germany/Italy/Japan forbid flying the planes into Canada, a dominion of England.  But the loop hole said nothing about "driving" or dragging them in by locals, helped America help England that was getting hammered early on.  The German POW's that were interned in Houlton  harvested crops, were well cared for and a few even moved here years later due to the kind treatment.
