Some members of the 710 Squadron, part of the 447th Bomb Group. 12 of them signed the back of the photo and I did my best to connect those names with a face. This is an image of the Communications Section for the 447th Bomb Group, 710 Bomb Squadron, 842 Air Engineering Squadron. These were the primary radio repairmen, radar specialists, Cryptology, and Communication experts. Captain Lewendowski was the section Commander, Ernest Schrock the NCO. It is likely this image was taken November 4th, 1943 at Harvard Nebraska AAFB
