John P Belton 449th BG MiA or not?
Hello to everyone
On July 5 1944 on a raid to Toulon, 2/Lt John P Belton and his crew in B-24H 41-29274 ‘The Wise Virgin” has a initial report in the 449th BG records as being missing in action. However, the aircraft is supposed to have survived, and there is a photo of it in the Groups web site. However I can find very little trace of the crew and/or what happened to them. Belton serial number was 0 808509 as far as I can read. I cannot find any MACRs. Any ideas on what happened to them? My suspiicion is they got back to Corsica and werre very late in reporting in. Regards Russell
