I was a repairman for the C-1 auto pilot and the Norden bombsight at this base during 1944-45. Brings back memories.

I have a ring from this class inscribed Lt John Thomson 42-17, also a bracelet with the name John Thomson 0-734624 and on the reverse June 4,1944 M D. I also have navigator wings and cap emblem. I purchased these items at an auction all in a shadow box. I would like to find the family and return these items to them if they want them. Any help is appreciated. Please contact me at melcar51@aol.com. Thank you.

I was a repairman for the C-1 auto pilot and the Norden Bombsight at San Angelo from 1944 to 1945. This publication sure brings back memories.
