Hello,
My grandfather was Edwin H. Spuhler (incorrectly listed as Edward N. Spuhler on the 401st BG page), and this is the ship he flew the most missions on. If anyone happens to have any photos of this plane and could share them here, that would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Calvin,
I have some info on the plane. My grandfather was Lewis Oster the bombardier that flew with your grandfather. What is a good way to contact you?
