Michael,
Just visited the museum this last Saturday, and our family had a great time! Was just able to retrieve this email (spam problems). Sorry for the delay in replying. I will get some info together, and email along with attachments.
11 missions, not 7, will send docs.
Name of the plane was "Strange Cargo"
Will get back with you soon with more.
C. B. Bozeman (my father is the veteran Curtis E. Bozeman)
