Jones

Pilot, Acft Cmdr: Jones, Thomas M., O-796153 | Soderburg's Crew, Jones' Crew (13, 36), LADY JEANNE II | Initial Deployment, Apr 43, 2/Lt | KFA, 17 Jan 44, 1/Lt |

 

Note 1: Jones was checked-out co-pilot (Soderburg's Crew) and was getting a few missions in as Aircraft Commander before returning to the States. For some reason not given in the records, he took over Ondes' Crew. This was to be their second mission. Note that the crew was assigned a new number (36) for Jones rather than the (26) they carried for Ondes, but this may well have been the result of the 380th change of crew number on 1 Jan 44.

Note 2: There is no mention of Ondes in available 380th records after his crew was killed in Jones' crash. He may have transferred away from the scene of this personal tragedy.
