Searching for military info on Gerard Raymond Dufresne

Post by SB52Champs » 07 Aug 2022 1946

Gerard Dufresne was my grandfather. I know he was part of the 90th Bomber group and was a top gunner on the B-24. I am looking for any information on him and pictures. Thank you in advance.

This is all I could find. It appears he joined in theater after the hostilities ended. Document size must be too big for uploading here.

"October 5. .....Provost, Paul D. 2nd Lt., Smith, Howard C. Flight Officer, Ahola, Paul E. Sgt., Dufrosane, Gerald R. Sgt., Ireton, Wayne Cpl., attached and joined from 90th Bomb Gp (H) pending assignment."
I interpret this to mean he came from Group and is pending assignment with the 320th Squadron.
