Re: 2Lt. Walter G. Burry, O-747078

Hello Leo,
Yes but this was an event in January.
However ,
I have reached for Dick Drain's book and found surprisingly that Burry is noted as a KIA.
Wayne Cherringtons crew list is given as -
Riley; Burry ; Stucks; Korzeniowski; Stucks; Craig; Wood; Murray; Wallace; Sexton.
Wood; Murray and Wallace POW, rest KIA.
So would seem that Burry being in the Flather's crew is misleading ?
Have looked again at MACR 1834 to check names.
Stucks should read Stucka
And Burry is not named in the MACR.
So back to Flather's crew and possible two serials to choose from.
All for now
Alex
