Re: USAAF losses over Ploesti 24 June 1944

Hello Frank,
Thank you greatly for your input, it is most welcome.
As for the MACR I think that craig Fuller must have had access to it as he gives the Pilot name in his website - how else would he have got the pilots name ?

DCO.
Thanks again, will see if I can find Bohn's service number, if I do I will let you know.
