Comments: Trying to find out if my Dad and his best friend were in this outfit. Can you tell me if you list an Ovie H. Wells &/or a Leon Oswalt. Both men were from Oklahoma and were aircraft mechanics. If there is any further information that you require I hope I might have it. Unfortunetly my step-mother pretty well destroyed everything that had to do with his military career.
Thanking you in advance for any assistance you can give to my brother and I.

Here are some pictures of my dad standing in front of the base sign and also the tail of a B-17. maybe the tail marking will help. his service number was 38396597.
Thanks again
