Hi Steve: the files is silent on the fate of F/O Stamm. I do know that he survived the War. Best, BillWomen in WWII: Cornelia Clark Fort
Hi Ed: I don't know. I expect that perhaps he was able to talk to some witnesses or perhaps the officers that prepared the crash report. I do have that crash report in my archives. Best regards, BillWomen in WWII: Cornelia Clark Fort

Hi Philippe: thanks for this information on "Reluctant Dragon". Always glad to read about a crew that survived. Best, BillFive From the 464th Bomb Group
Dear Bill As French aviation historian, and particularly specialised in the 15th USAAF'heavy bomber bombardment, it was pleasant of to read your nice page about the 464th Bomber Group. I noted about this special day of June 6'1944, another loss rom the 464th BG. It was the B-24 "G" 42-78223, at my knowledge nicnamed "Reluctant Dragon" piloted by S/Lt Thomas Mills, shot down over Ploesti wherre all the crew parachuted safety. Hope that this information can to be an little help for you for this worst day. Philippe
