Hi Michael. I am the oldest daughter of Clarence Lee Pickens. I believe he flew on the Irresistible You. I have copies of the missions and of his squadron with labeled names, but they are not very readable after so much time. I have a lot of photos, but cannot ID them all. If you would like, email me, and I will be glad to help in any way I can. Tara
