If anyone wants to share information on this B-17 or is interested in knowing more about this B-17 let me know. I conducted multiple interviews with the pilot Gale Patterson, Alexander Bryant (listed here as R/O but was a waist gunner) and ball turret gunner Tony Rizio. I have copies of the MACR, photos of the aircraft, crew photos, many hours of recoded interviews and journal entries. I included this information my book From Foggia to Freedom. I am happy to share any information I might have.

Brandon send me your email. I was very good friends with Tony Rizio from Amsterdam, NY. I would bring him my dad and friends to the casino very week to play craps. Tony did talk about what happened the day he went down in detail gives me chills. I can provide you details and pictures I have of him. All the best. Rob

Brandon, thank you for your offer to share information on Never Satisfied and its crew. Navigator, Earl Waricher was my Uncle, and I would be most interested in any information you might be willing to share about him, the aircraft and its fate. With Thanks, Michael
