Comments: A Paul Kass and myself designed the sqdn patch for the 30th sqdn in 1953, to replace the old keystone cop patch. the one that we came up with had a scull and wing with lighning comeing out of the eye socket. I lost the one that I had, If anyone knows where I can get one, I'll gladly purchase it, or have some made up from it. Four Of A Kind (9999) crew chief. Bob Sauvageau....

Looking For Crew

I am the sister to Ross Joslyn, Tail Gunner, B-29, wounded in Korea when
his plane was shot and crippled,  but cruised in for a crash landing  at 
Kimpo.

I am looking for anyone who flew with the B-29 crews in the 30th Bomb
Squadron, l9th Bomb Group from l95l-l952.

My brother, Ross Joslyn was a tail gunner and is looking for anyone from
the crew, especially a John Manzaris, left gunner (not sure of spelling,
spelling is phonetic).

I personally remember a plane named "Peace Maker". Although not the same
plane, the crew had to crash land at Kimbo after being put out of
commission while bombing a bridge near the Manchuria border.  Anyone out
there remember?   The year was l95l - 52.

Info on Patterson needed

From: Walter T. Campbell Email address
Date: Mon, 12 Apr 1999 
Subject: 30th Bomb Squadron
To: SiberSandy@aol.com

I have been unable to find anyone else who may have some information 
about the 30th BS. I was in Korea in 1953, in the 13th Bomb Squadron, 
and am presently a member of the 13th Bomb Squadron Association, a
veteran's group that holds reunions each year, publishes newsletters, 
etc.  

Today I received a phone call from a lady in Nashville, TN, searching 
for a Lyle Patterson who was in the 30th in Korea.  Now, my question: 
have you ever heard from any 30th Bomb Squadron veterans' groups, or
perhaps from someone who is keeping a history of the 30th, etc.?  

If so, I would like to contact that person to try to locate this
Lyle Patterson.

Thank you for your time in reading this letter, and for your
response.

Walter T. Campbell, Brewer, Maine.
