by: kurtis Thanks for adding details Renee 2022-09-08 20:13:29

I added a note with your details in the pilot BIO with aircraft flow, thankyou Renee and please thank his grand-daughter for the photos and information. I note the date of death as April 2, 1945, just a short number of weeks before wars end. If there might be additional information on this, or any other service notes, please feel free to edit this page. The newspaper clipping very much illustrates the details of one of his sorties, thank you again for adding. Kurt
