| While perusing an old issue of FlyPast, I found a story of a 401st ball gunner, Sgt Golden Hill, who was KIA on <br/> 'Down-n-Go' during Mission 132 to Weimar - the author did some extensive research and there were several other aircraft on the mission that day identified by pilot and serial # that may be useful in updating some of the info on the site - 613th Sqdn, Frank Carlson - Homesick Angel, 42-31591; 613th Sqdn, Chester Kuta - Madame Queen, 42-97931; 615th Sqdn, Robert Callaway, Mary Alice; 613th Sqdn, W. Shackleford - Miss B Haven, 42-31863 (aborted). If anyone is interested, e-mail me and I'll scan the 4 pages and send them<br/>

| While the serial numbers of the other planes are known, it is nice to have verification of Miss B Haven's serial number.  Thanks!<br/>
