Alain,

I don't know what sources you've checked already, but b17-france.org also gives Ficheux...

Lt Donald R. Morsch (O-811953) was from Illinois.

Groet,

Leendert

Alain,

Just a little follow-up. You may be interested to read http://bbouillon.free.fr/acheville/data/guerre39-45.pdf

and page 8 especially under "11 février 1944".

Regards,

Leendert
