My father in law was a crew member on a B-24. He was shot down and spent a couple of years as a guest of the Germans.
My Dad flew with the 8th AF. Shot down once over France, and made it back to England to finish his tour.
I have his mission map where he plotted all his missions and targets.
For anyone that has relatives that flew in the 8th, they have a great web site where you can get the records and even the planes flown by your relatives, mission by mission.
My father was in WWII, Korea, and two tours in RVN. His two brothers were in WWII and my mother’s brother Corydon Johnson was a TSGT in the Army Air Corps. He is in a photo along with the pilots and crew. In WWII everyone served if able.
