Edited by Robert Hotchkiss' son, Robert Hotchkiss Jr. Will be contacting the Rougham Control Tower Museum Memorial to correct the name listed as my father's that is displayed on the "Janey Gal" memorial plaque. Not sure who Robert Gonzales is, but I am POSITIVE that it isn't my father and therefore NOT Janey Gal's tail gunner.
