349th Squadron - This crew joined the 100th on 29 November 1944.
It is interesting that they joined the group along with the Paul L.
Carroll crew - a coin was flipped to determine squadron
assignment--Carroll's crew went to the 418th and were shot down on their
fourth mission. All became POW's, while the Lebo crew flew a complete
tour.
Samuel Pitkowsky thought to have CPT as spare TOG.
Gene Bankston moved from WG to TOG when Pitkowsky left crew
