Re: more us losses
B-17E 41-2411 crashed on take-off in Guatemala City on 21 Jan 1943.
ABMC gives 6 May 1943 for Lt Gail E. Moore as date of MIA. Regards, leendert |

Re: more us losses
Hello,
Moore is still recorded as MIA. I also have these three P-38 Pilots lost the same date, again no serial numbers yet. Lehocky, Paul J. Bryson, Louis M. Jr. Burke, James W. Alex |
