Leendert,

Thanks for your reply and identification of St.-Lievens-Houtem. I have visited the former posts and have had some good private exchanges with RedCap50. In any case, I am aware my father mis-spelled the town name. He was actually taken there after he bailed out to the home of Dr. Vander Schueren who helped remove some plexiglass fragments from his eye that occured during the mission.

On March 30, I will be stopping through Belgium for one day on the way home from a trip to Afarica and plan to rent a car to visit the towns and places where this incident occured. So, I am interested in anything else I can learn about this event.

Thanks much,

Jon
