379th
Hi,
My Father was Staff Sergeant
Thomas Joseph Grange with 379th, Bomb group
527th, we have a picture of him in front of a
B-17 numbered 19 in a square and 211 above that.
He said that his plane was the Aces & Eight’s or
Aces & 8’s with the respective playing cards
painted on it. Could you please send me whatever
information and pictures you might have? My
father passed away and never talked about it
much and we as a family are trying to piece some
things together.
Best Regards,
Thomas M.

237, 243, 244, and 245. Lt. Gropper may have
flown additional missions, but these are the
ones we show in our records.
Lt. Gropper
was trained as a PFF Navigator. Accordingly, he
was not assigned to a “regular” crew, assigned
on a mission basis to only Squadron Lead or
Deputy Lead crews, flying aircraft that were
specially equipped with a radar navigation
system that allowed bombing through heavy cloud
cover. Airplanes equipped with the PFF system
had their ball turret removed, replaced by a
retractable radar unit. This secret system was
code named “Mickey”, and PFF Navigators were
referred to as Mickey Operators. This system was
only installed in specific aircraft, and allowed
all other Squadron aircraft to salvo their bombs
when this PFF equipped aircraft did so.
On November 30, 1944, Lt. Gropper was flying as
PFF Navigator in a/c 44-8017, “The Sad Sack”, on
a mission against the synthetic oil plant at
Zeitz, Germany. This aircraft was hit by flak
over the target, crew was as follows:

Subject: 379th Reunion
It is Scott Taylor writing. We have
corresponded several times. My grandfather was
2LT Royce Donald Taylor, a bombardier killed 20
Dec 1943 over Bremen. I was just looking at the
website, but didn't see anything about a reunion
this year. Is there one, and do you have a link
to the information for registration?
I would
also like to know if you have any information on
Winebert Daniel Flexer, bombardier. He was the
bombardier for whom my grandfather was replacing
on the mission to Bremen. I have conflicting
stories...one was that he was flying as a
bombardier in the lead aircraft for that
mission, another was that he had double
pneumonia and could not fly. Do you have
information on whether or not he flew that day,
and the other missions on which he flew? He
survived the war and became a Georgia State
Senator and later, a Superior Court judge.
Thanks,
Scott Taylor
Lt Col, USAFR
Scott –
Association
records for Winebert D. Flexer show he flew 25
missions as bombardier with the 527th Squadron
from October 20, 1943 to April 11, 1944. Our

86, 88, 91, 92, 93, 94, and 95. Lt. Flexer may
have flown additional missions, but these are
the ones we can account for in our records.
From available information, Lt. Flexer flew
only 1 mission with the Reichold crew, the
December 16, 1943 mission to Bremen (mission
49). That mission was Lt. Reichold’s first
mission as aircraft commander, having previously
flown 15 missions as co-pilot. December 20
(mission 50) saw the Group return to Bremen for
a different target – and Lt Taylor replaced Lt.
Flexer at bombardier. The circumstances that
dictated that replacement are unknown.
Lt. Flexer did not fly on December 20 – at
least, not according to any records we have.
This response will be posted in the "Looking

Hello -

mentioned in the subsequent search (1290), my

from PTSD. Unfortunately I did not ask him about
the war before he took his own life in 1970.

Dear 379th BG
Association,
I recently learned that my
lifelong hero, John Toliver, served in the 379th
from July 1944 to Sept 1945. Before that, all I
knew was that he served as a B-17 bombardier in
England.
Lt Col Toliver, USAF, Ret, inspired
me to join the Air Force when I finished high
school in Detroit in 1969. John and his wife,
Gretchen, were like second parents to me; their
daughters, Kris and Sue, like sisters. When I
was an AF Academy cadet in 1971, the Tolivers
took me to your reunion in Colorado Springs. It
was one of the proudest moments of my life when
Lt Col Toliver introduced me as "his son" to
your former commander, Lewis Lyle.
Please
tell me all you can about his service in the
Mighty Eighth. He passed away several years ago
and is buried at Fort Sam Houston in San
Antonio.
With warm regards,
ALLAN W.

may have flown additional missions, but these
