Another report from Don Schneck has this plane being picked up at Tinker Field on July 29, 1943, and assigned to a lead crew of the 445th Bomb Group, 702nd Squadron. In March, 1944 it was reassigned/transferred to the 93rd Bomb Group, 329th Squadron, assigned to a lead crew and later to the Squadron Commander. While with the 93rd, the bombsight was removed and replaced with GEE-H navigation equipment. The aircraft returned to the USA after the war, with its orginal crew. The aircraft carried the name *Sin Ship*. Maybe the MACR has the wrong serial number. | ||||||
