Source message left by Robert O Holliday, Sr's son on UPL 27364:
The pilot on the left is my father, Robert O. Holliday, Sr. I believe that he flew his first few missions as the co-pilot with Lt. Shambaugh. He then flew the majority of his missions (18 out of 30) in A/C 44-4831, OR-W, "Cheri II." My father's co-pilot was Edward Fagnani. As far as I know, the entire crew flew all of their missions together, though the war ended before their tour was over.
