Your Dad would have been justified in at least calling himself "one and one-half mission Nyberg". Group records indicate that he was shot down on his second mission. The crew's first mission, which was flown on 12 June 1944, just two days earlier, was to Vitry-en-Artois. Since he evaded and ultimately returned home, he really could claim to be "two mission Nyberg".
