: Based on information provided in the book "The 388th At War" by Edward J. Huntzinger, the following pilots/crews flew on missions with the 563rd BS in the B-17, Jamaica Ginger. Namely, Prendergast Crew, Schneider Crew, Elliott Crew, Meagher Crew, Price Crew, Lord Crew, Paulson Crew, Chimenti Crew, Woodburn Crew, Klein Crew, Quinn Crew, Kittle Crew, Radtke Crew, Aubry Crew, Christensen Crew, Geib Crew, Taylor Crew, Lucas Crew, McIntyre Crew, Lucas Crew, and others(?). As the son of the bombardier for the Prendergast Crew, I'm looking for pictures/stories/etc. from crew members and families to further document experiences aboard this aircraft.
