[303rd-Talk] Re: John R. Helms

[joelkc2442]

Wow!  How great is it to get this kind of information for this family.  Mr. 
Moncur Sir, I would like to ask you to tell me if you can, did Lt. Richard 
H. Cambron ever made it to Lead Pilot?  He was Co-Pilot under Fontana on 
most all of my father-in-law's missions thru 12/31/1944.  He died as 
Co-Pilot under a different pilot on January 21, 1945, but I had read that he 
had made it to Lead Pilot.  I would like to clear this up and tell my 
father-in-law.

Thank you in advance,

Joel Coleman
Georgia
