Todd, my dad, Donald L. O’Neill, took or received a pic of The Dingleberry Kids with (I presume) a pilot standing under the nose. My dad was a waist gunner, later an engineer/top gunner. Happy to share the pic with you if you like.

My Dad was a co-pilot with the W.W. Wood crew. He had his bomber jacket with the “Dingleberry Kids” on the back.
