Captain Estill E. Lord, Serial O-476874, from Houghton, Brookings County, SD, was an Air Corps Supply Officer in the Army Transport Command (ATC). A page at www.state.sd.us/military/VetAffairs/sdwwiimemorial/SubPages/profiles/list_of_casualties.asp?pn=118 says that he was "killed in action" at Diss, England, while the National Archives mention "DNB" (Died Non Battle.)
For info on the ATC, see www.ibiblio.org/hyperwar/AAF/VII/AAF-VII-1.html and following pages.
Somebody who is/was (?) busy with ATC (ETO) history is Noel E. DOWNING, in Dublin, Ohio. Phone at www.whitepages.com
Good luck in your search & best regards,
