Glen C. Durkin, Navigator, Crew 43 Martin Mc Donough notified us that his crewmate 1st Lt Glen C. Durkin took his final flight on 30 May 2006. Mr. Durkin had been ill and in the end suffered a heart attack. This reduces the remaining crew members to four: Bob Johnson, Co-Pilot; Tommy Mayfield, Tail Gunner; Paul Kasmer, Right Gunner and Martin McDonough, Left Gunner. "Glen can best be remembered for his endless efforts at his tiny desk - many times giving his last heading report - when Guam was visiable on the horizon ... He shall be missed ...." - Martin McDonough, P-43, Left Gunner. |
