Thanks for the reply. My dad told me a story of his plane ditching in the North Sea as best I remember. I see where he is not listed on the crew list of Jack Owens A/C ditching in the Channel.
I also remember him telling me that he, the pilot and one other crew member were the only to survive their tour from the original crew. My mom had also mentioned that my dad had flown 25 missions. There are 14 missions shown with the 457th. Is it possible that he was transferred to another bomb group? My mom mentioned him being stationed somewhere other than Glatton for a time.
