Dear Sir;
I would greatly appreciate an image/photo of Lt. Stine's a/c - "Shade Ruff", and thank you very much.
I'm searching for any information about Lt Empric for a cousin of mine who does not have a computer or internet access. She, my cousin, is a cousin of Walter Empric's wife, Elizabeth (Betty) Gentner of Buffalo, NY. Her interest in Walter was whetted when I researched another cousin who was a S/SGt waist gunner/engineer on a B-17G flying out of Bury St Edmunds, Eng. in the 94th BG (H). Their plane was shot down by German fighters on a mission to a target south of Berlin on 18 Apr 1944. The crew of 10 all survived and were POWs until liberated on a forced march out of Stalag 17B in Austria. I received a wealth of info regarding this cousin, his crewmates, their plane, etc., etc.. I certainly appreciate the help I received from members of the 94th's website, as well as the response from you and others on the 401st Forum.
Thanks very much,
Hal Spencer, Yorkshire, Ny
