Lt. David M. Hall wrote all 603rd Reports. Besides target and load lists, what is unique is that he also included:
- Officer Promotions
- Crewmembers Transfers into the 603rd,
- Shot-Down Crews,
- Tour Completions,
- Some award mentions, such as Purple Hearts,
- Parties and other activities.
Many veteran names are mentioned in each of the monthly reports. A reliable search technique is described within each report, but must be done for each report. You may also wish to try the search technique described within 398th Web Site Searches, but that method may not be as reliable as searching each report.
