My grandfather flew this plane” Farmers Daughter” on a combat mission, although the records have his last name misspelled with a “b” instead of a “d”. His name is 1st Lt Floyd Dodson 8th 401st BG 614 Sq and he was one very Lucky Devil. In his honor and out of respect, do you know how I can get the record of the spelling of his name corrected?
