349th Sqdn. This crew, as above joined the 100th Group on 23 Aug 44.

Flew nine missions as a "regular" crew and 20 missions as a Pathfinder Crew. When named a PFF crew (4 Dec 44), Art Larsen & Will Bostrom were removed from the crew, Larsen to take over his own crew and since the BTG was not carried on the PFF aircraft Bostrom went with Larsen. Both were KIA the last day of March 1945 at Zeitz.

Crew left the U.S. from Camp Kilmer, N. J. aboard the S.S. Brazil & ten days later docked in Liverpool, Eng. Returning to states, left South Hampton, Eng on V. E. Day, aboard the USS Kingfisher bound for Boston.
