My Uncle Alex G. Rodriguez flew in the B17 as part of the 513th Bomb Squadron as a bombardier/navigator and then transitioned to the B24. I have read the Born in Battle book and he is in the group picture with the B17.
The picture and text were provided by his nephew.
He was initially with the Willard Fountain crew.

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.
