Frank W. Kinker (Left Waist Gunner)
I was a member of the original crew
#27 on FLAK MAGNET (41-29273), which we picked up (brand new) in California and
flew it via the southern route to Horsham St. Faith, Norwich, England. We were
on rest leave when another crew got knocked down in it over Hamm, Germany 22 Apr
44. Shown above is the original crew of FLAK MAGNET taken beside
GAS HOUSE MOUSE (42-95050) that we flew on some
missions while waiting for FLAK MAGNET II (41-28962).
