Roger Arendsee notes on mission of October 16, 1944
Tank works at St. Valentine near Steyr, Austria Passed out from oxygen lack before I.P. Flak at target M.I.H. Got flak at Villa, Austria & Trieste, Italy also. Saw flak at two other places; one was Klagenfurt. Sweat out all of the mission. Had to land at Foggia because of Gas. Three planes from our squadron had to land elsewhere. James crew crashed on take off at Ancona. [They also hit and destroyed at least three medium bombers on the ground.]
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.
