Again, The books are: From 1943: "Contact": Aviation Cadets, Ryan Field, Hemet, California "The Bobcat": M.A.A.F. Marfa, Texas "Echelon": Basic Flying Training, Minter Field and "as briefed" by Walter E. Owens ~ "a family history of the 384th Bombardment Group" [pub. 1946] Sorry for any confusion, Linda ----- Original Message ----- From: JULIE To: DonLinda Sent: Thursday, August 17, 2006 10:27 AM Subject: Re: [WORLDWAR2] Look Ups: Class 43-H Hi Linda, You don't say in your post what branch of the service the books are from? I am looking for a Navy man from WWII. He was a radioman and pilot, from Texas and seemed to have spent a lot of time in Northern California during the war. My family met him at Alameda Naval Air Station there. I don't know if he just happened to be there at the time or if it was his home base. Any way the name is Pierson or possibly Pearson. I don't know the first name but his nickname was "Slick". I have a photo of him taken in early 1944. So whether he could be in your books or not I don't know but I appreicate the offer of a lookup ...Thankyou Julie
