Memphis Belle Flight Engineer RIP

Hey All,

Just to give you a heads up. Sgt. Harold Loch, Flight Engineer and Top Turret Gunner on the B-17 Memphis Belle, passed away on the 12th of this month.

I can't believe how fast we're losing them. That makes Robert Hanson, Radio Operator, the only surviving member of the Memphis Belle crew (as listed on the War Bond tour).

Just FYI,
Mike

Thats a shame . I guess we can't beat Father Time. Hopefully there will be enough responsible people out there so thier memory and their sacrifice will live on.

Regards,

Craig
