It was sad that the author didn't have information about one of the men executed on Chichi Jima. The following men were the crew of a VB-109 PB4Y-1 shotdown on 5 August 1944.

Lieutenant Elmer H. Kasperson
Ensign Warren A. Hindenland. Executed by Japanese forces in the Bonin Islands (Chichi Jima).
Ensign Keith E. Ellis
Joseph W. Komorowski, AMM1c
Warren B. Simon, AMM2c
Richard D. Frye, ARM2c
Hugo L. Kluge, ARM2c
William F. Schneider, AOM2c
Victor B. Jones, AOM2c
Allen K. Stinger, AOM3c
Bobby W. Fickling, AOM3c

All shipmates of my Dad.
