Anthony "Tony" Quesada submitted the following for "History of the 39th BG" (1996): 

"Sorry to say I have lost touch with my crew. I stayed on Guam while they all went to Tinian to go home by surface transportation by virtue of the 'Point System' Those of us left behind flew the planes home, and we never saw or heard from each other again. 

I was pulled off the crew after 20 missions because Group Operations wanted to use our talents to brief later missions. This prevented us from completing a tour and rotating home. As it turned out, the war ended, which negated this grand strategy. 

George Walsh, my A/C became a weatherman in 1946. In 1947,he and a colleague and their wives took a C-46 sightseeing to Venezuela to see the Bridal Veil Falls. They crashed in the jungle and all aboard perished.
