Cpl Byron Nelson - 10/06/2007 10:57:26 PM

I am looking for anyone who may have know my brother Bryon Nelson. He was orginally a member of the Billy Backman crew, but was dropped when the crew was reduced to 9 members. I believe he was a machanic. After his crew went down December 31t 1944 over Hamburg he vountered and flew with another crew, I believe as an engineer. I would also like to know information on the plane and crew. My brother died the 12th of January of this year. I only got some information about a year before he died.
