Morning..
Can you support / share please?
Not related to NEBOair or our electric aircraft, but a little plea to ask whether any of you may spare a £1 or 2 for the last drive to raise these funds.
On 5th November 1944, near the the NEBOair Headquarters, a B24 Liberator 'Gypsy Queen' 42-95024 from the 93rd Bomb Group, USAAF crashed returning to Station 104 Hardwick after a Mission to Karlsruhe, Germany.
Three of the crew lost their lives:
Pilot: 1st Lt. Leo F. Baumann of Illinois, age 22
Co-Pilot: 2nd Lt. Edward T. Dunne of New York, age 20
Nose Gunner: S/Sgt. Leo L. Henry of Wisconsin, age 19
I am raising the funds to place a Memorial in their memory on what will be the 80th Anniversary of the crash.
For the past 5 years I have spent my spare time collating the stories of this crew, but also all those who flew her, including Mission One, of D Day.
I need to raise a further £1300 to be on point, and would be grateful of you have a spare £1 to donate.
