1947 Criminal Case #1091, 1947, Alva, OK

W.B. Hull was known as Birdie Hull. His full name was Willis Berten Hull. This case may relate to Hull shooting down Gene McGills' airplane. The case was moved to Woodward county. I talked with Gene at Hulls' funeral and Gene offered to help the family if he could. Gene (talking about himself) said he was an SOB but everyone knew it. You had to like Gene, he was direct and knew the truth of what happened. I'm W.B. Hulls' Grandson and still have the rifle that shot down Genes' plane.
