I’m writing about my father’s flight crew, of which I have several pictures. Based on the plane and information from my father Ernest Forrest West, I have the following:
338th Bomb Squadron (BX), 45th Combat Bombardment Wing, Boeing B-17 Serial (42?)-338777 W BXW.
Also have the names of the flight crew. I’d be willing to share. I tried the search on here, with no results. Please let me know. Thanks for posting the sight.
