Thanks for these, Larry. My dad was a bombardier on B17s and B24s in the 8th 
Air Force. Stationed near Sudbury in Suffolk. I didn't get along with my dad 
very well, but stuff like this makes me emotional. Probably because I didn't 
get along with him very well.

Point of information: My trip to England in September is to visit the sister 
who was conceived while he was there. We didn't know about her till three years 
ago. Never wouida known without the web.
