Information on The RIGGLE crew & " THE SAVAGE ", #42-31710 ,5/8/44

On May 8, 1944 the 100th BG flew two missions.  Mission 112 to BERLIN and Mission # 113 to La GLACERIE ( NOBALL).  Thirty two aircraft  were dispatched to BERLIN , all but one returned . The Lt. Riggle crew aboard "THE SAVAGE" #42-31710,  Failed to Return FTR .
Looking for the  names of the other  members  of the  Riggle  crew and their fates. Were  there CASUALTIES sustained by  the crew?
Additional information welcomed.

    Ernie,
     
    Your request is vague,doesn't  mention what specifically your looking for regarding the Lt. Riggle crew but suggest you check the website for some details on the crew. www.100thbg.com

    The MACR 4578  is also available on the Database section by Pilot name or MACR # .Aircraft info is on the Aircraft by Name database page. Also do a keyword SEARCH on the site  for additional info that will come up on the crew by name.
    The 100th BG was using "CARPET" on this mission,as referenced on the Crew page with casualties listed
