- Photos from Lae
My father-in-law was MSgt Kenneth C. Neal, radio operator
in C-47s, 433rd Troop Carrier Group. 68thTCS. They were on New Guinea from
August through November 1943. Since the TAIU found the nearly flyable Oscar at
Lae in September, this coincides. - Ashley Messenger.

| The C-47 is, as far as
we can tell, Kenneth's airplane. He has been dead for decades, so we
have no way to know for sure. It is serial #42-23863, and carried the
name "The Gray Ghost" Maybe someone who sees this will have
some more information. |
