Hello Terry,

Looking at 154 Sqdn losses for early  August 1944.

I have found

Dennis R. Chamberlain 12 miles SW of Le Mans, France 3rd Aug.
John M. Cox belly landed Bari 10th Aug.
Walter P. Humphrey engine failure crash landed 6 miles NNW of Lucera 12th Aug.

Do you have any others for time between 1st and 12th August 44 ?

Thanks
Alex

Hello Terry,
 
This is what i've found.
 
 10th August 1944  - 42-104050 John M. Cox - 154WRX - Bari, Italy
 12th August 1944  -  42-67085 - Walter P. Humphrey - 154WRX - 6mile NNW Lucera, Italy
 20th August 1944 - 42-66730 - Charles W. Leavens - 154WRX - Bari, Italy
 
Cox, Humpreys and Leavens all survived these incidents as far as I can find.
