My father was Robert A. Olsen and was a B-17 Radio Operator stationed at Rougham Airfield, Bury St. Edmonds. He was on the crew #2417 Pilot Robert B. Allison. Some of the B-17's they flew on missions that I know of where Mission Belle, Good Time Cholly III and possibly Shady Lady, Kismet, and Horrible Hanks. His 24th mission and last was 8-4-1944. Hit by flak and wounded as well as Lt. Robert B. Allision. Taken to 65th General Hospital and eventually back home to the United States.
