Patty,
One more entry from the diary of Lt. A.E. Davis, a fellow pilot from the 374th FS.
Sept. 20, 1944. Knickman spun in but wasn't hurt. He hit a haystack. Wrecked plane completely.

It was a pleasure talking with you Steve, and I will be happy to assist Diane with whatever possible. I just spoke to my Dad's crew chief, Russell Severson, who is now 87 years old and as quick as a whip! Thanks for tracking me down and getting me back on track to find out more about my Dad's time flying P-51's.
