How
does it compare to the data you have?

www.nampows.org/B-52.html


The dates are good (plus or minus 1 day on a few), but that list fails to
document the crash landing in Da Nang in '67 (probably because there was no
lost aircrew, bailouts or fatalities, it was just a very hard landing after
already suffering some bad battle damage), the ground fire in Kadena in '68
(which involved no aircrew at all), or the 2 that were scrapped in '73 (one at
Da Nang and the other at Utapo). All the ones that involved bailouts or
fatalities matched what Dorr has almost exactly. If you notice, that web page
even mentions Dorr's book (co-authered with Lindsey Peacock).
