Documents obtained during
our research
These documents are scans of copies
of the originals or scans of prints from microfilm. We have found
over the years that people want to see what the documents look like
- so here they are. Understandably, some may be difficult to read.
These images average about 50k in size and should load rapidly.
We include in this section several
91st BG documents. To date, we have been unable to locate similar
documents for the 381st BG. Since the formation we are researching
consisted of both 381st BG and 91st BG aircraft, the documents have
been particularly helpful.
