Harold Kendall was assigned to the 93rd Bomber Group / 409th Bomber Squadron and flew missions from England until the 93rd was temporarily assigned to fly out of North Africa in support of the Allied forces in that theater. On February 25, 1943, B-24 41-23740 'Red Ass', piloted by Lt Jacob (Jake) Epting and with 14 other men on board, including Kendall was forced to land in Spanish Morocco for lack of fuel. The crew was interned in Spain. Chapter 10 of "Ted's Travelling Circus" chronicles their adventures in this incident and it is also mentioned in Top Turret gunner Ben Kuroki's story at http://www.ploesti.com/Kuroki%20Book%202-10.pdf . Harold Kendall flew as Epting's Co-Pilot on #41-24105 "Tupelo Lass" and later had a crew of his own. He was Pilot of # 41-24215 "Lucky" on the 1 August 1943 mission to the Ploesti oil installations, Rumania. Page 228 of "Ted's Travelling Circus" tells about Kendall in that raid. The hydrautic system had been shot away and he successfully landed his plane 'Lucky' on a liberated Sicilian, Italy, airfield. P-40s that were mended and sitting on the airstrip were damaged in Kendall's landing. His crew was pronounced safe.

Harold Kendall died in an aviation accident on 31 December 1967. He and 3 other men ("Tabe Ranria, Alfred Harmon and Juan Pedro Felix") were flying in a small plane and it disappeared without a trace, into the Gulf of California.
