Posted by Willard Reese If you mean the Mission Narratives on the 457th website, there are several ways: 2. You can bring up the Aircraft Database by clicking on the button on the home page. Clicking on any link in the "Fate" column will take you to the narrative. 3. If there were lives lost, then click on the "457th Honor Roll" button on the home page and select any link in the "Aircraft " column and that will take you to the narrative for that mission. 4. In the "Search" box on the home page, enter the word "Narrative" (without the quotes). This will bring up the links to all the narratives on the website. (plus a couple other things) Those links labeled Mission 0 are instances where the aircraft was lost on the continent but the crew returned to the field with no loss, or a mission where the aircraft and sometimes the crew were lost over friendly terrority (England). (i.e. mid air accidents.) There are some other ways also but these should help you find what you are looking for. Note also: We do not have a narrative for each mission flown only those where an aircraft was lost. Where more than one aircraft was lost on the same mission there is a narrative for each aircraft lost.

Diane,
1. You can go to the "Search" box on the home page and enter the mission target (i.e. Berlin ) and follow the link to the "Honor Role 457th BG (H), Mission xxx".
