Following on from their coverage of the mugs burial the other day, there is a double page spread of 401st photos in the Kettering Evening Telegraph tonight.

Images to follow once I get my camera working...

All the best,
Paul

What? No scanner? Newspaper articles look better when they're scanned. 🙂

Hi Paul:
I'd certainly be glad to purchase a copy of the issue (or reprint if they do that).
Any contact info in the newspaper issue I could use?

Sorry Ed, my faithful old scanner won't work with Windows 7. I'll get a new one sometime... 😉

Win, I'll see how many copies I can round up.



1994 Reunion photos:

Jack Root:


Bill leading the jeep convoy from the control tower:


We should be able to put names to these faces:


Interesting photo of B-17F Lady Luck:

(According to my notes, this particular one was assigned to the 463rd BG, 15th AF. I have no idea where the ET found the photo or why they included it ...)

The most often-seen 401BG photo over here, sadly not held by NARA.
Does anyone have a hi-res copy so I can attempt to identify the aircraft in it?


All the best,
Paul
