The 320th B.G. Reunion Association is looking for volunteers to perform
transcription of 320th WWII documents that will then be added to this site.
We are currently trying to
transcribe all the crew loading lists for all 586 missions for the 320th. It is
a large undertaking and could certainly use any help from those interested. The
benefit of having the lists transcribed is that they could then be searched by
the crew member's name. By simply typing in a last name on the 320th website,
one could instantly identify all the missions in which that individual was
involved.
In addition, we would like to transcribe the war diaries for
the 320th squadrons. The 444th has already been completed by one of our
veteran's daughters, Donna Guidry, but the remaining squadrons are still in need of
transcription.
If
interested, please e-mail me.

Gentlemen in my
research of Lt. Col. Charles R Johnson, I have reviewed his personnel records and
cannot figure out the meanings of the following symbols or mission
details
Senior
Pilot. What is the
definition? Secret
flights What would have been
secret in 1943 and 44? Wing
A3 Col. Johnson was
made wing A3 in May of 43 when Col. Fordyce died along with his staff in a
B26. What were the duties
of an A3? Thank you for your
help Col. Johnson is my father and he served in the headquarters of the 42nd, 47th,
and 7th fighter wings.
