Charles R Terpening was the bombadier on this 17. He was my father.
Would tell me stories of the action he saw, and about being a POW, for six months after being shot down.
All the men that flew these missions, are some of the bravest men that fought for this country.
Would like to find out if there is anyone, from this crew’s families who are out there.

Yes, my wife’s great uncle was Willis Moulton, the co-pilot. I would like to learn more about the crew and missions they flew.
