Hello Bruce,

my name is Mario. I am an local air war historian from Oranienburg, Germany. I've done a lot of research according the 8th AF missions onto my hometown during WW2, especialy of the April 10th mission. I am also member of a group of enthusiasts researching for missing air men and yes, we've found the crash site of your fathers plane and, together with a team of JPAC members, we were in August 2007 on the site to find out what happens to Sgt. Lloyd J. Blood, who is still in MIA status.

To Joe Peterburs,

my kindest regards to you from Oranienburg. I am always remeber our meeting at Burg in September 2004. I hope you are well and I wish you a nice birthday party on next Tuesday.

Tally Ho
