The Judge Crew was one of the early replacemnet crews to arrive at the 458th. Their first mission was flown on May 28, 1944 to Zeitz, and their 32nd and last mission was flown on August 16, to Magdeburg. After approximately 17 missions, Sgt Edgar E. Bonner was replaced as flight engineer by Sgt Gary Labowitz on July 1, 1944. It is not known how many missions Sgt. Labowitz had when he began with this crew. It is assumed that he completed his tour of combat flights sometime in the late fall of 1944.
