dear steven,
Sorry to use this way but I have a problem with sending you the pictures of the ceremony, I have a returning e-mail for 12 time at least. What is the problem?

Sorry for using the forum for technical problem but I have no other quick way.

I am the son of Douglas Conway, who's still living, who was the bombardier on the SAC Hound and evaded capture for 5 months.  We understand from my father that the crew had an accident in Kearney, NE before deploying that took them out of their group while investigation of acident occurred. This landed them as a very junior group in Deenethorpe and at the tail end of the mission lineups.  This made for the most vulnerability as the target was rounded and led to their being picked off.
