I can only add information you probably already have. Our bombardier, Charles Grayson, was flying  his first mission with another crew on July 22nd, 1944, and the plane was lost to flak. He was blown out of the nose of the plane, luckily with his chute on. He was a pow in Bucharest until Operation  Rescue brought him back to us on sept. 2. Do you have any information about the crew he flew with on that day and about how many survived?
