Lt Robert Longley from 365 Fighter Group

Hello,
I would like to find some information about 1 Lt Robert P. Longley,
O-806866 from the 388 FS. He died on the 25 of February 1945 and he was buried at the Ardennes American Cemetery (Neupré, Belgium). Was he KIA (circumstances?) and which was the P-47 serialnr?
Thanks,

Alexander

Hi,
Just to add that the P47 crashed near a place named Buir, in Germany.
