I am looking for anyone that might have known my father, 1st Lt. Andrew B. O'Hara -- 5th airforce-- Jolly Rogers -- "Asterperious" bomb group. I only have a few items to go from, he was a Pilot and flew the B24 Eight Ball on a mission over Wakde Island Apr. 17, 1944 which I have a in flight picture of. He also was shot down and crashed the B24 Scorpion -- some where on the beach close to Finschafen, and the crew and he were rescued a few days later at night by the Navy PT Boats. Time frame not known,but I have pictures of the crash site and a few items signed by the crew. I also have his flight jacket with the Asterperious, and Jolly Rogers patch on it. He passed away along time ago and I would appreciate any info one might have. Thank you Col. Jon A. O'Hara USMC Retr.
