MISSING IN ACTION
There still remain members of the 47th Bombardment Group classified as Missing In Action. Research and information about these men. Until they can all be brought home.
MISSING AIRCREW REPORTS
Every time that an aircraft went down behind enemy lines as a result of enemy action or mechanical failure, official reports were created known as missing aircrew reports or MACRs. Many of these reports were completed after the conclusion of the war as interviews were conducted following the return of prisoners of war who may have witnessed and/or were the topic of the MACR.
