350th Sqdn.. This crew joined the 100th on 25 Aug 1943..  

Lt Grenier is often referred to as "The Man who came to Dinner."  Ledgend has it that he arrived at 

Thorpe Abbotts and flew the above mission without having time to unpack.  This may not be 100 percent accurate, 

records indicate Lt Grenier and his crew were on the base about twelve days prior to the 6 Sep 43 mission.  

None the less in 100th lore he is and will remain "The Man who came to dinner."



 MACR #687, Microfiche #227  A/C #42-30335 "SANS FINIS"



EYEWITNESS REPORT: "Saw A/C #335 at Colmar, France nose down through attacking fighers 

with No 1 and No 3 engines dead. Eight chutes seen."  Report from MACR and was made by Lt W.H. McDonald.



To whom it may concern,

Im inquiring about a certain Ball Turrett Gunner, S/Sgt Anthony J. Fusco. On your website it lists him as a member of the Sans Finis flight crew that was shot down on Sept. 6th of 1943. I am inquiring for any information you may have on him, or anyway to obtain information about his career both before and after his time with the 100th. 

Anthony J. Fusco was my uncle, my Grandmother's Brother. From what we know he was killed in Iran, and received the Purple Heart. I know he also served at Elmendorf AFB, in Anchorage, Alaska. Any information you may have on him, or any way of obtaining information would be greatly appreciated. Much of his life after he left to join the Air Force is unkown. And anything you could tell me would greatly help.

Please e-mail back as soon as possible.
