John J. Daly Jr. is not listed in the book B-17 Flying Fortress Story. Only the information on the plane that I sent you. The book can be obtained on Amazon.com if you want to buy it. The scan that I sent is all that is listed in the Vic Maslen book. Hopefully some one else can provide additional informaion other than the crew list and missions they flew.

My father,Lt Samuel P. Wilson(Rhode Island)was the pilot of Also Ran-Still Running. I am interested in contacting any surviving crew members or people who served with him.
Please feel free to contact me if you have any information.
Thank you-
Bob Wilson

Sir,
I have just come across info concerning my great-uncle John Daly who was bomardier on the Also Ran-Still running. We (family) did not really know the details of his war time service and subsequent internment at StalagLuft 1 in Barth. I called John yesterday when I found the info about his aircraft while visiting a musuem with my 8 year old son yesterday. He remembers your father (the info I had stated Sam EVADED,along with CPL Morrissey, but John told me he was "in the camp also". John also told me about an incident at Deenethorpe where the gunner (SOKOL??) accidentally had a runaway with his guns and hit a tool shed. I am now gathering as much info as possible to make a mini-scrapbook of his tour/experiance. I have just found this wonderful site and the one at wwwarmyairforce.com. Hope this address is still valid. Sean McDonald,BMC,USCG
