by Stuart Young
(San Antonio, TX)
February 27, 1945 - Target: Salzburg, Austria Marshalling Yards. The yards are located in the bottom right hand corner of the photo. Spot the hits?
TSgt Young's 10th combat sortie targeted the Salzburg, Austria Marshalling Yards on February 27, 1945. After serving as a fill-in on a few missions after his original crew went MIA on February 7th, Young now was assigned to the Lt Ehrenberg crew on a full time basis. Young added these comments for this mission, "Flak was 5,000 feet low and to the right. The Old Swede John's Deere was slow and headed to Foggia, but we got back to base OK."
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.
