sgt Wm. Ennis, 44-41053, shot down 9/10/1944 - 09/16/2008 06:21:46 AM ( #1 )
I am researching Sgt. Wm. T. Ennis, engineer-gunner on 44-41053.  I have the MACR which indicates he was shot down on 1st mission.  Family says it wasn't his first. 
Anyone know/remember him?  Any information about him personally or about that mission would be greatly appreciated.  What was target?
    I know I'm asking a lot - but, any bit someone might be able to add will be appreciated.
    Thank you.
Hugh

According to the 464th's website the target was:

"Vienna, Austria — Diesel CaterreicheSaurerwerke"

You can also get the NMR(narrative mission report) from their site here.  These were compiled by Bob Hoskinson, a member of the 464th and a member of this forum. 

Do you have his records?  Look here for some research tips that may assist you.
