[1] Friend of Norman B Wilson Family (25-Nov-2019 02:47 PM)

Was able to match name and class photo of 2nd Lieutenant Norman Brown Wilson of Avinger, Texas on page 80 as an advanced pilot graduate in Squadron 4, flying the P-40 Warhawk in 1943. After the war he became an attorney practicing law in East Texas and became a well known Duplicate Bridge player. He passed in 2012.
