Re: Roland 'Bud' L. Wolfe, USAAF pilot with 4 victories ?

Alex, John, Paul and Peter

Many thanks for your assistance. Especially valuable as I had no details of his USAAF service.

Obviously the reference to four victories has turned out to be newspaper embellishment. I have 'EAGLES OF DUXFORD' (78thFG) by Garry L. Fry but had never spotted his name.

As Wolfe was only released from internment in Ireland on 18 October 1943 he was very quick to transfer to the USAAF in England.

Paul. I also have 'GROUNDED IN EIRE' and indeed gave a little help to the Canadian author about his father's crash in 1941.

Gentlemen, my thanks once more.

Regards,

Martin.
