Is this your Edward Kelly?… Edward Arthur Leo Kelly (31349290) of Springfield MA; b. 1 Apr 1918 (Lawrence), d. 19 Jun 1971 (Springfiled, MA).
If so, I’d love to connect about his crew on the 44-8443

I have a picture of the Bachelors Delight on my wall and It has a completely different crew in the picture. My grandfather was a radio op and we always believed that this was his B-17. I would love to share this picture. I have read that the crews could have changed over the course of the war. Do you possibly have a list of the crew members? It’s so cool to see these pictures.
Thanks
