Been looking for Class book for navigator class 44-02 at Ellington Field, Ellington, Texas. My uncle Harvey Arthur Ackerman graduated At Ellington Field, Texas January 7, 1944 Bomber Squad 2 Class of 44-2. He mentions 44-A a lot. He also mentioned a Lt. Farley and a Lt. Earl Anderson who he says are in his class book. I believe the latter to be MAJOR GENERAL EARL O. ANDERSON who entered active military duty in February 1943 and was commissioned as a second lieutenant in the Army Air Corps and awarded his pilot wings at Ellington Field, Texas, in January 1944.
