My uncle 2nd Lt Frederick E Barker he was the pilot of 42-39984 when they were shot down. I have the picture of him and his crew. What i don’t know is if this is the crew that was with him on that fateful day back in February 10th 1944 nor do I know who is who in the picture except that of my uncle. I’m hoping that maybe someone out there has the answer.
