Did find crew names, but no complete tie up to a/c (yet)

1.Lt William R. Jokinen, S/Sgt Edward J. Creeden (41-39237, nr Gemünden, both returned)

2. Capt Ross H. Cornell Jr, Lt. Roland E. Enman, S/Sgt Ashton Carter

3. Lt Clifford Vars, S/Sgt John. J. Griffiths

4. Lt James Kinney, S/Sgt John J. Sittarich


On that fateful Worms mission, a B-26 was lost as well.
