My uncle, 2nd Lt. Owen Jorgensen is one of the crew of Pistol Packin Mama who will be honored by the monument. He was one of those killed by local civilians after surviving the crash. Can anyone tell me how I might contact Gen. Martin of US Air Base Ramstein Germany who will be at the dedication? I would like to talk to him before the ceremony to let him know how important this is to the surviving family. Thank you to Inge for telling be about the monument to my Uncle Owen.
