I am seeking information on Joe Lester who served in the USAAF WW2 and spent time in Berlin, he would have visited Charlottenburgh during 1945/47. He originated from Chicago although he lived in Long Island for a time as his father had a business there. Joe joined up at an early age and possibly remained in the services up to the 1970s, it is possible that he was based in Houston in the 70s. It is possible that Joe passed away in the 70s while still in the services but I have no authentication of this.During his service in Germany Joe had a best friend named Johnny who lived in Rhode Island, I do not have a last name. If anybody recalls or thinks they may have known Joe I would appreciate contact. As far as I am aware he was a Sgt in 1946 3stripes up and 2 down, it is thought that at the end of his service he was a Captain or higher.
Thanks, Peter
