Article on the crash of "Luck of Judith Ann": http://www.457thbombgroup.org/New/Newsletter/Newsletter2/Lanloup.html It appears that the members of the crew on August 11, 1944 (when the plane went down in liberated Brittany) were as follows: Pilot 2d Lt Gerald B. Ross (0-748253) Co-pilot F/O Samuel W. Sayer (T-2823 ) Navigator 2d Lt Chester R. Tingle (0-720035) Bombardier F/O Thomas A. Matassa (T-2898) Radio op. S/Sgt Hulitt O. Kirkhart (15327541) (3) Eng./top turret S/Sgt Camille H. Blais (11036102) Ball turret Sgt Thomas S. Maulstesby (34257493) Tail gunner Sgt Carl A. Adolfson (37554345) L waist gunner Sgt Richard J. Burdett (33581949) R waist gunner Sgt John L. Collins (12081558) I wonder if any of the crew is still alive today? I'd love to talk to them about the plane and what happened.
