Albert D. "Junnie" Riffle served in the 465th BG / 782nd Bomb Squadron, not the 467th BG. He was on the same crew as my Uncle, Dean Ottaway, who is also in the group photo for this record, kneeling in the front, second from the left. Junnie is still alive as of Feb 10, 2020. My uncle passed away in Feb 2019.
