based on an interview with pilots

following the
mission from
which First Lt

naman failed to
return on Jan

been received
by Mrs. Hanna-
man, 390 East
Washington st
The B-17
plane of which Lieutenant Hanna-
man was copilot was on fire and
the crew continued to fir over the
target to drop their bombs rather
than break out of formation, crew
members in the other plane said.
Capt. Richard Parry, com
manding the formation In Its as
sault, on a communication center
at Dusseldorf. Germany. suDDlyina
front line German troops, said
"Some people would call it devo
tion to duty, but to us it was plain
guts. Flak got the plane just as
went into the -target. I could see
the flames licking back from the
engine. When I glanced back
again the left wing was wrapped
in flame. They hung onto their
bombs and stayed in formation.
When we reached the target the
wing looked like a giant bonfire,
but they got their bombs on the
objective. Every man in. the for
mation was hoping for a miracle
to put those flames out Then they
pulled away and started down.
We will never forget their cour
age. Mrs. Hannaman has received
letters from the commander of the
unit and the chaplain, but so far
nothing is known of the fate of
the crew members. Mrs. Hanna
man, the former Lila Murray, and
their two children are living with
her parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. S.
