In this book I found Aviation Cadet Robert H. Portsch of Bloomfield, New Jersey. He went on to become a pilot in the 487th Bomb Group at Lavenham, England. He was killed in action on March 14, 1945, when his B-17 caught fire and crashed at Carlton Colville, England (near Lowestoft). Full details are on his findagrave page: https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/82231246/robert-harsen-portsch
