Hello Mr. Rapp,

My name is Joshua and I am the son of Morton Greenberg, who was the navigator on the flight in your discussion.

My father died today; ironically, almost 58 years to the day that they were shot down.

His wife showed me some of his documents and that is how I came to find out exactly what group and squadron he belonged to.

While he didn't talk very much in detail I was able to get some sense of the story.  I'd like very much to hear more.

If you would, please respond to this email address if you get a moment.

Thanks,

Joshua

I am the nephew of Joseph V. Del Torto, the Radio Operator of Lt. E.A. Hensen's crew.  I know my uncle didn't make it out of the plane.  Any other info on him would be greatly appreciated.  I don't have much to go on. My Father and Grandmother never talked about him to me at all. All I have is his purple heart award.  I would really like to know more about my uncle.
Thank you

Joe Del Torto
