Hello, my name is Stasiu Nabozny. My grandfather, Edward Nabozny, was the radio operator aboard 42-102464, which was shot down over Le Bourget, France, June 14th, 1944. My knowledge of what happened to my grandfather and the rest of the crew come exclusively from my mother's secondhand account that she got from my father's mother, and I'm still attempting to gather more information. My grandfather passed away a decade before I was born, and my father was sufficiently traumatized by his passing that to this day he won't speak of his father. His wife passed away in early 2005, before I began my quest for more information.
I would like to obtain all the information that I possible can about the fate of the crew after being shot down. All I know currently is that the family was told that the crew had been lost, and there's a vague account of them falling in with the French Underground. I would love to find out if any of the crew are still alive today. If anyone can provide me with any information, or can point me in the right direction, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you.
-Stasiu Nabozny
