I was hoping to find any information about my grandfather, Donald Bennett who died on August 1st, 1944.  The role of honor has him listed as a member of the 401st group, 615 squadron. He is buried in Normandy.  Growing up, I had heard that he flew fighter planes, so I was interested to find out he was a member of the 401st.  Where escorts considered part of the group or was my information wrong?  Thank you very much for your time.
