                                    <td style='vertical-align: top;'>I just located this in another section of your website----mentions my Dad (Studeny is quite an unusual name)<br>  A Trip on the &quot;Paris Express&quot;<br>  29 November 1944  <br>I was invited to be radio operator on a flight to Paris. It did not take me very long to accept the invitation. Others on the crew were: &quot;Jumbo&quot; White, Ralph Dempsey, Rufe Causey, Harold Kuenning, Bill Dolan, Russ Newman, John Studeny, Cloyd Sellers and Mac McDevitt. There was one passenger aboard, Harold Bowman.<br><br>There had been a number of rumors concerning Colonel Bowman's call to Headquarters, United States Air Forces in Europe. After we took off and I was settled in the radio operator's seat, Colonel Bowman came into the room and sat on the floor next to me. I offered him my seat, but he refused saying that I had a job to do and should be in the seat. We had a very interesting chat on the way to France. I asked him if he thought that he would be transferred. He answered that he hoped to talk General Spaatz into allowing him to stay with the 40lst. I wished him good luck and said that we all hoped he could stay with us.   <br>Captain G.I. Blumenthal<br>Communications Officer<br></td>
