Harvey Posted May 22, 2013 Posted May 22, 2013 I'm currently researching the wartime records of two WWII veterans. One was a B-24 bomber pilot with the 567th Bomb Squadron, 389th Bomb Group; the other was a light tank crewman with HQ Co, Combat Command "A," 10th Armored Division. I've tracked some of the pilot's unit records to the Air Force Historical Research Association, but am attempting to locate the actual Mission Records for the missions he flew over France & Germany from Nov 43 - Feb 44. I'm also trying to find the official unit history for CCA, 10th Armored. Does anyone here know where I can find these records? I suspect they're at the National Archives in College Park, MD - but being in San Diego I have no way of getting out there to look them up at present. Suggestions?
Doc Posted May 23, 2013 Posted May 23, 2013 You might also want to check out the Air Force Historical Agency at Maxwell AFB (http://www.afhra.af.mil)
Paul C Posted May 23, 2013 Posted May 23, 2013 Yes, the mission records should be at College Park. A good professional researcher at College Park is Mike Constandy of Westmoreland Research. You can google the company name or I think that he ia member here.
