1/3/2007 1:39:31 PM | Does anyone know any information on Norval Garland Wood (my grandfather). I know he was transferred on March 23,1944 from 1st CCRC to the 401st. He was shot down and held POW as 17B. His crew information is below.
Pilot - T.C. Tilton
Co Pilot - J.H. Welsh
Nav - O.D. Mathis
Bomb - J.A. Makaymiec (spelling)
B.F. Zmijewski
S.E. Johnson
E.E. Springfield
J.S. Burleson
Norval Garland Wood - waist gunner
P.J. Hermance
S.E. Johnson was listed as a casualty in a B-17 serial 42-32072 "Mary". I would love to know how to go about finding crew photos, plane nicknames, etc. Would there even be a picture of him with his crew if he was transferred from CCRC?
Thanks in advance for any help anyone might have to offer.
God Bless.
