Bill Soester: "[This] is of an air crew. On the back of the photo, their jobs are listed, but there are no names. I’ve added below, in italics, what I think their names are. I don’t know if the picture was taken in England. Perhaps it was taken before they left the states (Georgia or Florida?). I’ve no idea as to when the AAF assembled their personnel into semi-permanent crews.
