350th Sqdn. Crew, as above, from ACCIDENT REPORT of 29/1/44.

Apparently Lundholm recovered from his burns for he is listed as completing a tour. He was transferred from the 350th to the 418th on 17/5/44.  See letter of March 1984 from Ken Everett and  Copy of Accident Report, "On 29 January 1944, 2nd Lt Lloyd C. Marks, ASN 0-746387 and his crew took off on an operational mission in a B-17G A/C #42-31502. The takeoff time was 0631 and it was still dark. The weather was overcast at 400 feet and with 3 miles visibility. Shortly after takeoff,  the pilot reported he had climbed to 300 feet and had lost all cockpit lighting. The A/C crashed at 0634 about 3 miles west of the field at Frenze Lane, which is NE of Scole. Lt. Marks (pilot) and Sgt. Anderson (Engineer) and Lt Lundholm (Copilot) escaped with severe burns while the rest or the crew received fatal injuries. The A/C was destroyed."
