418th Sqdn.  Crew, as above, joined the 100th Group on 18/2/45

Letter received from O.K.Griffith Jan.1985 says this crew flew  nine missions with the 100th. He mentions as Bombardier one Allen Glaskin and a Bob Gladden as Waist Gunner. Griffith adds that "Troy Brand was killed in a training accident at Thorpe Abbotts on May 11, 1945."  This would have been three days after V-E day - Brand is shown as FEH (flying at end of hostilities) in 100th records..jr
