In Memory of Our Vets

...but in particular to my Dad and his squadron.



My father served with the 379th Bomb group as part of the 526th squadron. He was a Tail-Gunner  on the B-17G in the European Theater during World War II. The crew flew many missions into Germany.




I have done a search and have found many of his crew are not alive - but I want to thank them for their service anyway. May their memories live with us.
