NOTES:

These TAPS listings began with the establishment of the current 380th Bomb Group Association in the Fall of 1999 (first newsletter issue dated December 1999).
They now include the TAPS records of the previous association or information obtained from the 380th historians (e.g., those KIA), as well as those reported in the previous Association's newsletters.
If you know of anyone else associated with the 380th who should be included in this TAPS listing and is not listed above, please send us email or submit the Comment Form so that we can be sure to add them to our list. We also welcome any corrections, especially to fill in missing information, on this list.
When submitting a TAPS listing, please be sure to include the person's name and squadron, city/state where living at time of death, date of death (if exact date not known, then month/year or even year is sufficient), and your name and relationship to the member.
