James- pilot, Robert Grossman-Co-pilot,Gerald Morris-navigator,Roger Seatehard-engineer,Frank hopkins-radio, William Keiwans-armorer,Henry Miller- togglier, Donald Newman-tailgunner, and William pennington Waist gunner.   this plane was shot down and crash landed in a peat bog, all survived after a bombong rum on Politz on 07 Oct 1944 thank you. i have pictures of the plane and an account of the missions it flew and the crew if anyone is interested! thank you

Would be interested in the picture of the aircraft! Since there is no picture associated with the crew.

Too true Don, as we both missed out on the photo of "Undecided" in the Swedish bog on eBay a few months ago.

All the best,
Paul
