Re: Lt. Darwin Nichols-African-American aircrew?
Right, I found this information on Footnote. Its interesting that Lt. Nichols was reported as POW in the initial MACR report but then was listed as KIA afterwards. Also, I thought that African-American aircrew only served with the 332nd FG not a regular 8th AF Bomber Group.
Just to check this out, I did a Boolean search on the term Negro (old non PC) + "AC" in the NARA data base and came out with about 25 aircrew POWs who were listed as Negro. Lt Darwin Nichols did not turn up on my initial search.
