Mario Schulze 3/20/2002 10:19:54 AM | Dear Sirs, I am member of an group of amateur historians in Oranienburg, north of Berlin, and I am looking for veterans of the 401st who flew the mission on April 10th 1945 to my hometown. The 401st was the last unit over the target, the SS-ordnance depot. I would be very gratefull if any veterans, who was part of this mission could give me an statement of their memories. Thank you very much. Sincerely Mario Schulze |
Alexander B. Taylor 3/25/2002 5:02:05 PM | I have been researching one particular crew that flew this mission. I have serial number of plane, mission breifing times, and crewmember names. E-mail me and I will send a file to you with information regarding this crew. |

I have some info on the crew and a couple photos of the plane. It was an interesting story what happened to the crew after the landing. If I can be of help email me. Hans |
Scott McElvain 4/23/2002 6:58:02 PM | Is Oranienburg near Fassburg? My dad's plane, Heavy Date, with a later crew crashed landed on a German runway there after an April '45 mission and I was curious if any parts of it might be in a museum. |
