£ var Buckner, Jr.’s Alaska De
h partment headquarters.
I#
l> In another bomber on the same
j| raid on the Japanese ibasf at
j| Paramushiru, a seriously-wound
i* ed pilot and two of his crew
j. members worked together to
j| bring their badly-damaged plane

y been incapacitated.

t the heavy bomber flight Sept. 11
and now missing in action, was
► awarded the Distinguished Fly

j! led an attack on the base on Aug
£ ust 11, entered the service from
K Pennsylvania. His mother, Mrs.

ft
jji ‘'On both these missions strong
► enemy fighter opposition was en
countered and a total of 18 of i
them were shot down,” his cita
tion said. “On the raid Septem
ber 11 this officer’s plane was
disabled toy enemy fire but the i
guns of his plane continued to
j fire after his plane had struck !
the water and broken up.”
Staff Sgt. Ben P. Colecchi, tail
gunner oh the bomber, now miss
ing in action, was awarded the
Air Medal. His father, Beneddetto
Cblecsqhi. livas at New Castle,
Penna.
j “After the plane made a crash ]
landing on the water,” the ser- j
geant’s citation noted, “his guns
continued to fire on an enemy
fighter which had followed it to
the water: The courage and fight
ing spirit of $his enlisted man are
) n keeping with the finest com- .
bat traditions of the Army ^ir
Forces.” 1
Capt. Jerome J. Jones, North
Hollywood, Calif., was the
wounded pilot who brought his
plane back. He was awarded the
Distinguished Flying Cross.
"During the attack this offi
cer was seriously wounded in
the arm and the co-pilot of the
same plane was incapacitated i by
enemy Hire,” the c|tation said.
“Nevertheless, this officer re
mained at his post and safely
brought his plane back ’to the
base despite the fact that it had
been badly damaged during the
attack.”
I Tech. Sgt. Dwight C. Lambe,
engineer, Charlotte, N. C., and
Tech. Sgt. John Stroo, radio op
erator, Shebqygan, Wis.j crew,
members of the same plane were
awarded the Air Medal.
“These men alternated in as
suming the duties of co-pilot and
.were instrumental in bringing the
plane safely back to its base,”
their citation said.
1st Lt. Robert G. Kemmerer,
Lock Haven, Penn., pilot of an
other bomber in the formation,
also was awarded the Distin
guished Flying Cross.
“The formation was attacked
by several enemy fighters and
| the flight leader’s plane was dis
abled and crashed and the radio
'of the plane of the officer des
ignated as second in command t
was shot out,” said his citation. [
^‘Without hesitation, this office
assumed the position of flight i
leader and led the other planes!
through the ensuing air battle I
without further loss. The crew on I
his plane destroyed a total of
fpur enemy fighters during the
engagement.”
