Another visitor to this site contacted me with some historical information on one of the 417th members, Thaddeus C. Kulpinski. I got in touch with the reader and he provided me a copy of a Christmas Greeting card that Thaddeus sent to his parents.
Thaddeus, “Ted”, Kulpinski was an RO and an original member of the 417th NFS. Here he is in a group photo of the original members…

…And a shot of him from when he was in prep school prior to the war.
Hello readers – I’ve been away on holiday for a bit and while I was away, I received a request from a reader who is looking to contact any relatives of Clarence K Fuller. Clarence died in action on 1/20/1944 and was part of the 417th Night Fighter group.
If you can help, please drop me an email via the contacts page on this website and I will put you in touch with the person who made the inquiry.
