The link below should take you to the goverments nearly complete listing of the 42 Sq. 11 BG H 7 TH Army Air Corp lost during World War II. It extends from the Attack on Hickam on 12/7/1941 until the end of the war.
 
You will see some listed as of 1946 or later. This was after all other sources were checked to make sure they were not captured by the Japanese or murdered by them.
 
When you click on the GO it will give you more detailed information of the individuals listed.
 
Click on Unit for the search and type in 42 only then pick 42 Sq. from the 11 BG H from a listing of all the units with 42 in them somewhere.

It is important to remember, though, that the ABMC listings only include those who are MIA or who are interred in National Military Cemeteries. Thus, pretty much every unit's losses are only partially displayed. Even with those, mistakes are not uncommon. I have come across a number of them. One of the great overlooked facts is that so many families had their loved one's remains brought back home for burial, and records for these are very scant.
