Horace Corigliano? aiprplane B 17? - 06/14/2008 10:43:52 PM
Hello,
I am looking ofr information on Horace Corigilano and the B-17's he flew in. Horace was a was an aircrw- member of the 306th Bomb Group(BG)
He knew the commanding officer portrayed  Colonel Frank Armstrong, a replacement for Col. Overacker. 
Corig says We were first division originally sent to England to be transferred to North Africa. The 918 Bomb Group in the picture is 3 times 306 = 918 thats how they identified them. We had 87% casualty rate; 287 of us flew to England on Oct 21 1942, 87 survived, and are passing away rapidly now. I was 19 as a bombardier-navigator,flew two tours; the second was a pilot.
