Info about a glider pilot
-
06/06/2004 11:13:46 AM
I am looking for information about my dad. The name on the record says his name was James R. Blum, but he went by "Bob" Blum. His Military record states that he was in the 15th Troop Carrier Squadron 61st Troop Carrier Group 9th Army Air Force in the European Theater.
He went to glider school in Wickenburg, Arizona and advanced glider school in Victorville, California. He served in Sicily, Napples-Foggia, Normandy, Northern France, Germany,and Rome-Arno
His citations include:
European African Middle Eastern Theater Campaign Ribbon Air Medal
Presidential Unit Citation with 1 Oak Leaf Cluster
Any information about him would be greatly appreciated, including other places to post messages or people that might be able to help me out. Thank you.
