S/Sgt. George J. Smith
United States Army Air Force 703rd Bomb Squadron
My father, SSgt George J. Smith was in the 703rd and was shot down on 1 April 1944 over Ludwigshaven. Five of the crew perished. My dad survived, was captured and spent the rest of the war in Stalag 17.
I noticed a SSgt Hugh D. Watt in the 703rd who died on 1 April 1944, I am wondering if anyone had any other information about SSgt Watt and whether he went down over Ludwigshaven?
