Re: Frank Glover 362nd Fighter Group

Odd case. For those who have an interest, the E&E report for Glover is here (free access):

https://catalog.archives.gov/id/5555432

The MACR (for those with fold3.com access) starts here. Today access is marked as free (perhaps because of Peal Harbor anniversary, access will be free though weekend):

His description of being picked up by 101st AB paratroopers near Carentan on what would be June 19th? would seem to fit a June 17th loss date.


You might be interested in reading this. The account is about two different E&Es, one is Glover's. To my way of reading the account, both started with losses on June 17th. The accounts start about 1/3 of the way down the page, with the words "On June 17th". He narrates the 1st E&E and then, to my reading, jumps back to June 17th and picks up Glover's account.
