Samuel D. Rose - Mission May 25, 1943
May 25th back to Messina with the sqd. C.O. Cap. Appold leading. We made a five minute bomb run, straight and level and got the hell shot out of us. I flew #73 again and brought it home with a lot of holes and part of the tail gone. The engineer got scratched and I got a piece of flack on my leg but just burnt a little, not a purple heart.
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.
