Crew 11 - Rosio 546th - 12/10/2007 12:38:43 PM
With a great deal of help from you folks I have the following crew list.  If someone knows of these airmen and what happened to them (or knows how to reach their relatives today) the assistance would be appreciated.  If SGT Anthony Cuccinotta's nickname was 'Choggy' or 'Choccy' it would make for quite a story.
 
  • F/O Joseph Rosio
  • 2LT George W. Evans
  • 2LT Leonard J. Fink
  • 2LT Sidney Casden
  • SSGT Otho E. Masterson
  • SSGT John H. Houghton
  • SSGT Lester Brown
  • SGT Anthony F Cuccinotta
  • SGT Lee Lewis
  • SSGT John H. Kuberski
  • B-17 42-30058 downed on 6/26/43 to Villacoublay, France
  • 10 POWS?
    • Grandson of:
    T/SGT William Aguiar

    It seems there were 2 POWs (Masterson and Lewis), while the others could evade capture.
    There was a post on 384th BG website that Ssgt Masterson had died on Sep 20, 2003 and is buried in Elwood, IL.
    Perhaps you can find more info about other crews on said website www.384thbombgroup.com
