My Father was Leo Wolfe, the ball turret gunner. I wonder if any of those who survived are alive today and would provide me with any information they remember about my Father, please. Thanks.

Jack Peterson was my Uncle. His oldest son, James Christian Peterson is still alive, but his father Jack passed in 1996. I am currently writing a short story about Jack and his first and only flight as a left side waist gunner. Jack told me his story in 1977. He never recovered from what he experienced as a POW. They were so young. Feel free to reach out to me. John Peterson: johnjdp@comcast.net
