Hi,

As a radio operator in 33rd Troop Carrier Squadron, 374th Transport Group, I flew many missions with Ed Whatley out of Port Moresby.

I understand that he stayed in the AF & died during the Berlin airlift.

I have a copy of our travel orders (round trip Moresby-Sydney) when we went for 7 days of R&R in July '43. If U R interested, I'll TRY to scan it & Em U a copy.

Bob Borchert.

NOTE:-  It is with regret that I have to advise that Bob Borchert passed away in 2000.

Can anyone help me with more information?
