these 5 pilots are credited with downing 9 of the 29 attacking Japanese
planes that were lost.
===============
Nine Japanese planes were shot down by these five young air corps officers
during the raids on Oahu a week ago Sunday. Left to right they are-2nd Lt.
Harry W. Brown, who bagged one Japanese plane; 2nd Lt. Philip M.
Rasmmussen, one plane; 2nd Lt. Kenneth M. Taylor, two planes; 2nd Lt.
George S. Welch, four planes; 1st Lt. Lewis M. Sanders, one plane. Lts.
Welsh and Taylor are to receive Distinguished Service Crosses.
Interesting...what were they flying? Got any links?
