The Sachtleben Crew 607 was one of the original crews for the 492nd BG that trained in Alamogordo, New Mexico. They came up as Crew 1065 from the 32nd CCT at Davis-Monthan Air Field in Tucson, Arizona. Their crew remained intact with no personnel changes. They were assigned to the 856th BS, designated as Crew 607.

Lt Raymond Sachtleben signed out for B-24J, 44-40146. In April 1944, they flew their assigned aircraft to North Pickenham, England, via the southern route. Lt Kehoe, the 856th Assistant Squadron Operations Officer, flew with them to England sitting in the co-pilot chair. Lt Mueller, the co-pilot went over on the Queen Elizabeth as commander of the other 856th crewmen taking the boat. Sgt DeBrular also took the boat to make room Lt Warner.

Letters written home by Howard Schwegel verifies that this crew's assigned plane was named SUGAR-N-SPICE. 

Lt Sachtleben flew as the aircraft commander for crew 607 for a total of 9 missions. 

On 4 Jun 44, as they took off for a bombing raid to Avord, France, the plane stalled and spun out of control near Garveston, Norfolk, England. All 10 on board were killed in the crash.
