349th Squadron - This crew joined the 100th on 29 November 1944. In one of wars oddities -- they joined the group along with the Paul L. Carroll crew -- a coin was tossed to determine squadron assignment--Carroll's crew went to the 418th and were shot down on their fourth mission. All became POW's, while the Lebo crew flew a complete tour.
