My Uncle was the Pilot of this Aircraft his name was Keith Adair Berve. I found some information about it some years ago, but didn’t save it and can’t find it again. It listed the crew members, and who was KIA and who was captured and became POW’s. My Uncle survived the crash and became a POW. If anyone has additional information about this plane and its crew, or incident report on where/how they were shot down, I would appreciate any or all they could share. Thank you Douglas Adair Clark

Hello Mr. Clark. My friends father was the ball turret gunner. He survived and was also a POW. I’ve been doing some research to get more information on the plane. We’re you able to find out any additional information from your request? Have you ever found a picture of the plane and crew? Thank you
