Maj. Gilbert B24 pilot
Hello !
S/L Bill Whamond of 619 Squadron, flew on a B24 with Maj. Gilbert at Wendling on 13 March 1944. Could you help to know what was the squadron of this B24 and who was this Maj. Gilbert ? Thank you for your help , Alain.

Maj. Gilbert became Air Executive of 392nd BG at Wendling in Feb 44. Picture of him in later years here: http://www.b24.net/392nd/officers.htm and story here: http://www.b24.net/stories/gilbert.htm Regards, Leendert

Alain - Just a FYI
The 392d BG attacked No Ball Targets on 3/12/44. Due to Bad Weather , the Group Landed at Tangmere and Flew back to Wendling 3/13/44. Mike
