| Looking for anyone who knew my grandfather Sgt. Peter Beckowitz 401st Bombardment Group flying in B-17 s/n 42-31557, went down onDessau mission May 28, 1944.  <br/> Please anyone who has any information on him would be great to know.  Obviously being the grandson I never met him, but the family has no pictures, no info outside of what is listed on your website.  Please, please, please pass this info to your friends anything at all would be great.<br/> Shawn Beckowitz<br/>

| Hi: <br/> <br/> You've a lot of company - You're among a growing number of WWII Vets' and Casualties' Kin looking for information. 'Good hunting'. (We've been doing that, too, for and about our KIA 613Sq Lt. Nelson Crew). <br/> <br/> Here's what little direct information I can offer, but if you E-mail me (win-z@comcast.net), I can pass-on more about resources (and where we found what).<br/> <br/> - - Sgt. Berkowitz (unless he 'filled-in that day) appears to be in the 613Sq. Lt. W.B. Keith Crew, one of the original 401st Crews (but their A/C, 42-31557 was not).<br/> - - Lt. J.B. Priest, the Keith Crew's Navigator that day (filling-in, probably) was the Navigator for the Lt. R.M. Fowler Crew (another original 613Sq 401st Crew).<br/> - - And I've not found any of the 'Kieth' Crew names in the 1947 and 2005 401st Directories (but they are incomplete and don't account for kin married names).<br/> <br/> Let me know if we can help.<br/> <br/> Win Bryson     <br/> <br/> <br/>
