While recently visiting with my husband's cousin in Arizona, we discovered this photo. We had not seen it before. This is my father-in-law, Paul J. Amon Sr. It was taken in Youngstown, Ohio before he went overseas. He was one of the original waist gunners on the Lundquist crew in the 100th BG. He later crash landed in Belgium on the "Lay or Bust". Martha Joy Amon
