Michael Sallen’s story begins as a kid who grew up on Intervale Street where Roxbury and Dorchester meet. After a short stint working for his dad who was an electrician, in 1944 he joined the Army Air Corps. In WWII Michael was a gunner and radio operator on a B24 Bomber. His plane was shot down and one of his crewmates didn’t survive, but saved Michael’s life by helping him get his parachute on in time to bail out.
