Howard Walker and crew flew her on HALPRO's first mission to the Ploesti oilfields on June 12, 1942. Running low on fuel, Walker diverted to Turkey, where the plane and crew were interned.

The website 376bg.org is NOT our site nor is it our endowment fund.
At the 2017 reunion, the board approved the donation of our archives to the Briscoe Center for American History, located on the University of Texas - Austin campus.
Also, the board approved a $5,000 donation to add to Ed Clendenin's $20,000 donation in the memory of his father. Together, these funds begin an endowment for the preservation of the 376 archives.
