1/23/2003 10:05:56 AM 		I saw a reference to a book called "Deenethorpe Diary" by Vic Maslen. Also, on Amazon I've found a book called "401st Bomb Group: 'the Best Damn Outfit in the Usaaf'".

My bookshelf already contains the yearbook, I guess you'd call it, the one published in about '46. Is the "401st" book above a reprint of that?

I'm looking for a copy of the "Deenethorpe Diary", and of the 401st book as well, if it's not a reprint of the "yearbook". Amazon is trying to find that one used, but I'm not holding my breath.

Does anyone know where I can get a copy of either book?

Thanks. :)

I think I have them all.  I got mine from Ray Corby in England.  They aren't really published and available anywhere.
