Ricardo Posted April 27, 2015 Author Share #4 Posted April 27, 2015 Hi, Set a pilot of B-26 "Marauders" and Douglas A-20 "Havoc" named "The Jersey Bounce" with more than 50 combat missions in the 15th Army Air Force in the Italian and southern France (MTO - Mediterranean Theatre Operation) and was shot and wounded twice during the War. The pilot was a member of the Caterpillar Club. Any new information about the pilot are VERY WELCOME!! Ricardo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5thwingmarty Posted April 27, 2015 Share #5 Posted April 27, 2015 Ricardo, Your man was probably in the 12th AF and not the 15th AF. The 15th did not have B-26 or A-20 groups but the 12th AF did. Marty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
