Paul,
My uncle K.E. Evans was tailgunner on the "Good Time Cholly III" B-17 shot down in Feb 1944 and in a POW camp. He was given the crew diary generated during captivity. I saw the book in the '50s. Since then, it has been sold/given to someone for an unknown reason. Lots of graphics, poems, and personal stuff. Thought that the artist of the group was named Kellogg (maybe). Would like to know the whereabouts of the book and if it was ever published.
