I am trying to track down the descendants of 2nd Lt. Milton H. Ciscoe from Rochester, NY, B-17 pilot of “Little Chum” (not the L. Chum in England, but the one in Italy, that went down on Feb 22 ’44. I would like to pay respects to the family and Lt. Ciscoe and my father, Lt. Cal Carstens were good friends…dad saw his friend’s plane go down…and it broke his heart. My Dad’s now passed, too…but I’d like to share my Dad’s diary with the decendants of the Ciscoe family from Rochester, NY if they are still there. Thank you. Ken Carstens

Ken, I’m researching the 18 March 1944 mission to Udine – Villaorba in which your father flew. I’d love to hear what you know about the mission. Jim
