Revisions
Ammended Caption on disassociated 303rd BG. O'Sullivan was part of the US Forces Historical Division in the European Theatre.
Historical Section organisational structure on Fold 3
Changed places associations from Molesworth to Thurleigh. O'Sullivan signed mission reports for the 306th Group on 27 Jan 1943 and over the course of the following months, which would suggest he was at Thurleigh at this time.
Censor numbers for other images in this series also pertain to 306th BG Personnel (see Adrian Poletti/ FRE 936 which was also wrongly identified as 303rd BG, and has censor no 245678)
