Lost 6 Aug 44, GER - MACR 7891 - Pilot Thomas E. Hancock

Info Contributor - Tom Allen
My Dad was 1st Lt. Richard T. Allen, the 19 year old who flew this plane out of Horsham Saint Faith/Coltishall. He died in 1981 but I know he would be as blown away to see this as I was. I had been surfing around looking for some more info about his base, bomb group and plane. Something or "someone" was looking over me because my first entry to Internet Explorer was a hit. All of a sudden, I see dad's plane jump right out at me. I was flooded with emotions.
