Dear Bonnie,
I have been working for 40 years with Dear Mom 42-30389 who was shot in my village Lummen, Belgium.
I would like to know more about Dear Mom from your window. Do you happen to have a photo of the device, crew?
Do you perhaps also own the MACR 93?
You can find more about the plane that crashed here on my website. To do this, select 94 BG 331BS B17.
I hope to hear from you soon.
