Michael:
Have you already looked at the 'Assigned Aircraft' page of this website? If not, got to: 'Site Map' > 'History of the 401BG' > 'Assigned Aircraft'. There it lists #43-37706, "Satan's Chillin", and its missions - including those of Pilot Lt. Annis. It's a start.
With Lt. Annis's 'particulars' (serial number, 613SQ. 401BG, dates of service, and aircraft ID (serial number/name) you could try an E-mail inquiry to the National Archives II, College Park, Md. (www.archives.gov) via their website's 'contact us' E-mail form to see if they have photos. They'll reply - either way - and should they have photos, they'll reply with how to order prints (via outside vendors).
I'm not sure how to trace of find records of Vets who survived the War, but there must be VA or Army (or Air Force) sources available to family members like you.
Good hunting.
