Lawrence Fick loaned me for our 8th AFHS chapter all his stuff that he still has from when he was a lead navigator in the 458th - I posted his items onto our web site - www.8thafhsoregon.com -- into our archives - strike photos, navigation maps - and a photo showing the 458th dropping that first use of napalm plus other photos.
Great website - and thank you for all the work you've done researching, archiving, and presenting our fathers' wartime accomplishments. Great men, and war heroes all !!
Lt Gasper DeSimone, Blondies Folly was my uncle. After the war he served again. This time as a NYC policeman and later Detective 1st grade. Retired and moved to Arizona. Married to Frances and
had 4 sons, Marco, Pierro, Guy, Dino. He has a living sister, my mother Lena Bowden aka Nina DeSimone who lives in Pagosa Springs, CO.
I was always proud of my uncle and what he did in WW II. I was thrilled to find a picture of the crew with which he served. I am interested in finding out more. he never discussed this topic with me, but my mother, his sister, and his widow would talk about the war and praying that their soldier boy would survive. My uncle died in April 1973 from cancer, but he has always been my hero. Thanks for this web site.
Wonderful tribute to all these men. My uncle, Allen C. Hilborn, was a copilot in this group. My memorable story from him was accidentally dropping an instructor General when the B-24's
were arriving to replace the B-17's. A malfunctioning
Hey, my has listed in his book a s/sgt James Busby as a Tail Gunner, asst. engineer from Oklahoma. My dad, Glenn Carlson was radio operator and gunner for the752nd Bomb sqdn, of the 458th bomb group. Their plane was "BO" & "BO II" I do have a list of missions and some pictures. fill free to contact me sandy: footballmomma06@yahoo.com
My father James Martin served with the 492nd bomb squadron from 1943-1946 and was the right gunner on the plane Mizpah, my family and I would love any information about or from crew
members
Thank you for putting together this site. My father (Orval Sorlie) served in Neumanns crew abord "Junior" and was shot down in July 1943 and ended up a POW. I did hear from the one living crew member, Co-Pilot Proter Grigg, who was kind enough to send me a letter with information about my father (shwon along with the photo of his plane on this site). This was wonderful new info and I shared it with my mother and sister and brother.
What a great site! Thank you to all who pulled it together! My uncle is Robert (Bob) Mattson, and
I really appreciate that there is this memorial to him and the rest of the men (and women) who
helped preserve our freedom! Bob passed away of cancer in 1986(?), but these pictures and stories
help keep his legacy alive!
what a great site!!!!!!!!!!! kudos for pulling this together.
great to see even more details about my dad, arnold piskin, and his crew of the howling banshee in 753rd bg.
in 1999 i was very fortunate to meet and spend time with my dad's co-pilot joe zanella and engineer don shannon.
thereafter, andrew and i created a 50 page website tribute to dad, his crew, and their time during and after the war.
as of this writing here is the url for those interested.
I am the son of Garland Meadows and I wanted to thank who ever posted this. Dad is doing just ok thses days he is 89 and living in Lebanon Tennessee. I am going to print this off and give it to him, I know he will be happy to see it, these days he talks alot about the time he spent in the war..thanks again
Would Charles Strickland please contact Trevor Hewitt on trevorhewitt@hotmail.co.uk
I live near the Dogs Life crash site and have info you might be interested in , thank you .
My Great Uncle was Charles Given- Nose Guner on the "A Dog's Life" that crashed 13 Feb 1945 in Old Catton. With the help of some good people, I have been directed here, and have learned a lot more than I ever expected. I never heard anyonein the family talk of what happend to him. Now I know. I have his wings, and a few of his personal belongings that he was suposed to have had on him at the time of his death. Thanks you for creating this web site- it is a tribute to all those brave souls who gave everything so that we could remain free.
My Grandfather, Frank Foutch, was a tail gunner for the 753 Bomb Squadron. I believe he flew on the B-24 numbered 40134-R. I also served in the Air Force, we were actually stationed on the same base for training a little over fifty years apart.
My grandfather passed away last summer. I miss him terribly. I wish that I would've known more about his missions in the USAAF. He was an amazing man. I thank you for this website and this little glimps into the part of his life that I know so little about.
My dad with the same name but junior was with the 458 and he flew 18 missions. I am pretty sure he was with the 753 J4 only because when I was very young I remember he gave me a patch and the patch listed looks familiar. He started as co-pilot but on his first mission a piece of flac came up through the plane and killed the pilot and radio operator and he had to take over. I believe he was promoted to pilot from that point on. He passed away in January 2007 and is at Arlington Cemetary
