Below is a list of the crews and photos of many of them. We are still missing some names and photos and we are sure there are some misspellings and typos. If you have corrections and additions, sent them to .
The pictures on this page are small but if you click on them you can see an enlargement in a new window. Be aware, these enlargements can take a few minutes to download on dialup connections.
SN 44-84068 probably started out with the 461st and was moved to the 463rd and assigned a different crew. Because they are dressed in such heavy clothes, the crew photo was probably taken in Pratt, KS, and appears to contain some of the men later in Ball’s crew (above) in Okinawa.
There is some confusion over the name and crew of this plane. According to Frank Bradstock “Trip Ticket” was the plane’s original name on right side of fuselage.
Lt. Giancomo was forced to ditch this aircraft off the coast of Puerto Rico
