Image original source unknown, supplied by Barbara Morgan, relative of Jack Crumbliss. I am a more distant relative of Jack and am helping research information on Jack and his plane. I have another relative, a Glen Crumbliss, who flew B-17s. They both come from the same area around Neosho, MO, although don't know if they were aware of each other.
