Information on 346 BG
-
06/10/2004 07:27:24 AM
 My father is Richard Kester Swimm. He served in the
20th Air force, attached to the 8th Air Force, the 316 Wing, 346 Bomber Group, 463 Squadron. He was stationed in Pratt, KN then was sent to Okinawa Japan and Tinian. I would like to find any other surviving members of this group for him. Also, would like to know of any reunions for this group.
Thanks for any help

My father, Sol Shafner, has asked me to locate other members from the 346 and any information on a possible reunion. Here is the info he has provided me:
346 Bombardment Group
463rd Bombardment Squadron
1945
8th Airforce
20th airforce
B29 bombers
My dad lives here in Denver in good health and would enjoy reconnecting with his ol' Airforce buddies. I look forward to receiving your responses.
Thanks. Bonnee

Hi. I am a high school student looking for some information on the 346th Bomb Group. I am doing a year long research project on a former student from my high school who was killed during WWII. His name is Robert H. Wellman. If anyone has any information or places for me to look and would like to share, i would REALLY appreciate it. Thankyou.
