The reason you cannot find Joe Coughlin as a crew member of that plane is because he was not on that crew. He and I were committed to fly 6 or 7 combat missions before we started our primary  jobs as gunnery instructors for the 401st.We did not fly with the same crew each time.I hope this clears up the problem.

Hello Jean;
I am new to this site and just pulled all the correspondance to Sac Hound. My uncle is Douglas Conway who was the Bombardier on Sac Hound. A local family there in Belgium hid him in a cave for months after being shot down. I recently spoke to him and am reconstructing a replica of the aircraft. Were you successful obtaining any photos? Do you have a picture of "Sac Hound" on the nose?
WOW! What a small world! Have you met my uncle? Was it your family that helped him?
I look forward to hearing from you!
Regards,
Norm Conway
