2nd Lt Lawrence CASEY / 83rd FS - shot down 11th June, 1944 over Normandy - 11/24/2006 11:11:32 AM
Hello Gentlemen,
 
I'm seeking more info about 2nd Lt Lawrence CASEY, a P-47 pilot who was shot down the 11th June 1944 over Normandy. A/C crashed near Louviers. He managed to evade capture.
 
Well, I would like to know more about his escape story and if anyone of you have a picture about this pilot ??
 
 
Here info I do have :
P-47 #42-75610 "Muscle Bound", 78th FG, 83rd FS, HL-N, MACR #5581
 
Any info will be very much appreciated
 
Thanks in advance
 
With kind regards
 
Loic

Hello,
 
what I found is:
 
Lawrence Casey - 2nd. Lt. Lawrence Casey, pilot in 83rd Fighter
Squadron from 4-29-44 to 10-44, to US. Then to Pacific(PTO) with the
414th Fighter Group.

I'm search all information about the FG activities on April 17th 1945 in Europe.
