I went through the Pampa Army Air Field gig sheets with interest, hoping to find find photos of Samuel O Allen and Grover B Bjarnason. Allen and Bjarnason died on 8 Sept 1944 in a training crash. I am a volunteer with Stories Behind the Stars, a volunteer organization writing stories about those who died in service during WWII. https://www.storiesbehindthestars.org Bjarnason's headstone includes the fact that he was an A/C, his service # 3756 0124 and the words Class 44, I. I have a grainy newspaper photo of Allen, but would love to have a photo of Bjarnason. Thank you so much for making these resources available.
