The ABMC website gives Sgt Merle J. Andrews and Sgt Harold C. Vanness with date of death 11 Jan 1943 (376th BG, 514th BS), but confirmation needed if they indeed were crew members too.

I hope this is a start.

Many thanks. I hope to find the names also of other men on this aircraft. Witnessing spoke about 3 or 4 men bail out but just one survive and was captured. Do you have some idea to find all name of this B-24? Thanks again.
