Two USAAF Officers Beside a Jeep at Wendling Airfield, Including Lt. J.D. Connolly, Navigator
Two officers of the 392nd Bombardment Group pose beside a Jeep at Wendling Airfield. The man at right is believed to be Lt. J.D. Connolly, a navigator who was wounded in the eye by 20mm flak fragments during the group's 18 March 1944 mission to Friedrichshafen, Germany -- a reminder of the constant danger faced by Eighth Air Force bomber crews.
