My father was in the 94th Bomb Group „The Eagles Wrath“. His name was Theodore Roosevelt Pruitt. In the picture on the website from above ^ he is on the first row second from the right. His position was the tail Gunner. I don’t know the man’s name but the one directly behind him“ the small man“ was the ball turret Gunner. My father passed in 1990 and I don’t have much more information than what I’ve stated.
