Ed Berry 3rd Photographic Group USAAf

[kaki3152]

I'm trying to document the recon pilots of the 3rd Photographic Group who were sent to Malta in 1943.I'm having some success using the book "Memoirs of World War II-The true Stories of a Canadian Fighter Pilot" by Laurie E. Philpotts, who served with 610Sq in 1941 before transferring to Malta as a PR pilot in 1942-1943. One pilot I cannot trace is Lt. Ed Berry. I have traced the following pilots: Ike Webb (KIA 10-24-43). George German, Arthur Luthy, and Joseph L. Sugg. There is a photograph in the book that helps identify all the pilots of the 3rd PG
