In direct support of British 8th army push. Carried frag bombs for troops. Saw big flash of flame on coast while going to target. Found out later ship explosion in Bari harbor. Markers indicated route to target and line of friendly flak at 15000 ft indicated front lines. Very little enemy flak seen. Good bombing results.
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.
