Can anyone help me find a flight log about my uncle Clarence Stenquist. He flew with the 348th Bomber Squadron as the Navigator from Dec 44 to Oct 45?

Hi Lory, I am posting per your request your uncle's crew photo and the caption that went with it.
This is the only picture Clarence has of his crew. Clarence Stenquist is the officer seated on the far right side of the picture. The picture may have been taken in Tampa, Florida just prior to leaving for overseas in December 1944. The crew is as follows: seated from left to right, Andrew J. Knox, pilot in command, Paul E. Sistek, Bombardier from Springfield Illinois, Stuart Alexander, Co-pilot, Clarence Stenquist, Navigator. These four men were officers of the crew. The men standing are the enlisted crew members, they are from left to right: Erwin Asker, Flight Engineer from Dana Kentucky, Buddie Hunnell, Tail Gunner, Stephen F. Maurer, Waist Gunner, Joseph J. Somuk, Armor, Seward, Pennsylvania, Dorcrim Bedox, Radioman, Louis Silverman, Ball Turret Gunner from New York. Clarence said, the enlisted Radioman operated the top turret and two waist gunners for a crew of 10.
Great to speak with you today! Scotty Ann [image]local://14325/91C3D10A123E4CBDB72E32680E01D4E6.JPG[/image]
