I am looking for any friends or relatives of Col James Luper or surviving crew members of the Rene III of the 457th Bomb Group. I have some high quality prints from original negatives they may be interested in. One is autographed by Col Luper and says "To Jackson - An officer, soldier, fightin airman, and my friend - Jim Luper Colonel, Air Corps 457 Bomb Group". I also have prints of Rene III in the field and in the factory before delivery as it was the 1000th B-17 from the Long Beach plant. Note that I am not asking for any money. I only feel the relatives and crew should have them.
