Wanted to see you guys in Tuscon but my wife is not able to travel very much at this time. I will look up the info on these men and get it to you. Thanks much, Eldon<br/> |- | '''Janet Miller''' <br/>11/29/2002 6:08:28 PM | Mr. Child, My uncle, Roy "Bud" Sanders, was part of the crew on the Schweinfurt mission, but he did not make it back. I would so like to have information on that day for my mother, his sister. I would enjoy hearing from any of the group. Thanks to much, Janet Miller<br/> |- | '''Norman P. Claxon''' <br/>4/5/2007 1:50:29 PM | Was wondering if you might know anything about the<br/> aircraft, Dorsal Queen ? I am replying for a friend<br/> S/Sgt Howard Crull who says he was on Dorsal Queen when they were shot down. The records show them in<br/> Command Performance. That was their regular aircraft<br/> but was down for maintenance. Mr. Crull is our bugler<br/> for our burial detail here in Portsmouth, Oh American<br/> Legion post 23. <br/> |- | '''Norman P. Claxon''' <br/>4/5/2007 2:22:01 PM | I am writing for S/Sgt Howard Crull who was the Ball<br/> turret gunner on Lt. A.B. Vokaty's crew. He claims<br/> that when they were shot down by fighter aircraft, your uncle Bud Sanders was on his aircraft. He also said that they were on the aircraft "Dorsal Queen".<br/> Records show them on their regular plane called, Command Performance but it was down for maintenance.<br/> Records show a W.M. Canter also killed on that flight.<br/> The rest of the crew ended up P.O.W."s in Austria. When I see Mr.Crull again and get anymore info I will<br/> post it on here.<br/> |}
