KIA on 29 May 1944 while flying his 67th combat mission with the 369th Fighter Squadron, Lt. Lowell W. Brundage of Spokane, WA, was buried in the Ardennes American Cemetery. 29 May 1944: Another major air combat of the month occurred on 29 May: a savage running series of fights north and east of Berlin from Malchin to Stettin. The action was by squadrons and the score for 12-1-0 for two -- Lowell “One-Eye” Brundage, a sophisticated humorist, and Myron C. Morrill, a new pilot, both 369th. One of these was seen shot down by a veteran Luftwaffe expert wearing two chevrons on his ship. The German, our pilot and Lt. R.K. Butler of Bodney, went into a 12-turn Lufberry, and when our pilot broke, the German got him. Lt. Butler came over from Bodney to tell S-2 about it. The mission report (Command Summary 197) tells the details and these are amplified in the encounter reports. Wetmore scored another double raising his total to 13; Colonel Murphy scored two, sharing one with Doersch, and the latter shared another victim with Siltimaki. ~ Excerpt from the 359th Fighter Group History
