I am trying to find out about Cpl. Thomas F. Ward. A/C was lost 6 June 1945, 24 members on board. I have information from UofMemphis relating to this. But I ma trying to get infromation on his military records and what he did for the 90th/400th. The records center had a fire in 1972 and
alot of records were lost. Any ideas on where else I might look. I also have the Western Union telegrams regarding his Missing and then Killed status as well a letter from Gen. MacAuthor and letters from his CO to my grand parents.Thanks!
