C-47 #42-101006 - H. Doering and crew - Mission Albany
Hello
On D-day, after dropping paratroopers in Cotentin peninsula, this plane from the 99th TCS was shot down and crash landed near Cherbourg. P : 1st Lt. Doering, Harvey W., Jr CP : 2nd Lt. Westrope, Thomas R. RO : Sgt. Delistovic, John A. CC : T/Sgt. Smith, James E. All the crew was safe, hidden by the French until allied troops liberated the town on 25 june 1944. I would like to find, if possible, a picture of the crew and any other information related to these men. Thanks PS : I already have their EE reports.
