I got a call early Friday morning that Ed Burnham had passed away earlier that day. Ed was a pilot and co-pilot as a 1st Lt. flying with the 95th Bomb Group (H), 8th AAF. During his 35 missions, he earned the DFC and Air Medal with 4 OL Clusters. His missions included six, one of which was a supply drop, in support of the Battle of the Bulge. His flight log has the making of a historical novel. I posted his remarkable A-2 flight jacket under my "Jumpin Jack's Collection" page 26.
