Are there any relatives of the crew out there who might be interested in a history of the missions flown from the perspective of T.K Hill (Pilot)? I have a copy of the Pilots Log as well as original newspaper articles in Swedish covering when and how the plane crash landed. My father was Omer Richardson, Tail Gunner.

Hallo Sir,
I’m not related to the pilot but I would be very interested in the reports about the flight.
I would be very happy if you could contact me
