Exclamation Emergency landings at A-92 in Belgium

Hi all ,

On January 1945 two ships from 448 BG , 42-50469 and 42-51075 made a emergency at airfield A-92 St-Trond in Belgium.
The pilot of 42-50469 was 1st Lt Holt Carl H , the pilot off 42-51075 was Capt Swayze Jack. Does somebody knows the names of the other crewmembers.

Regards
Alain57

Re: Emergency landings at A-92 in Belgium

Alain,

Not exactly pointing to an answer, but lots on 448th BG and other (crash)landings in Belgium here: http://willisrowe.com/DownloadableFiles/ROWE%20CREW.pdf

Lt Holt (O-821282) is mentioned as well with his crew, but then when posted to 715th BS in July 1944.

Groet,

Leendert
