398th Identified Crew Photos

For many years Geoff Rice had been collecting, archiving, and identifying 398th Crew photographs. This page contains a partial collection of those 398th Crew Photographs. Our companion Unidentified Crew Photographs re-lists photographs below where one or more men are unidentified and seeks your help. If you have information about any of the following photographs or can provide better scans, please contact our current Crew Photos Coordinator, Lee Anne Bradley. Geoff had always been interested in new or additional photos so he began the 398th Photo Collection Project. If you do not see your crew photo it could be that we have not uploaded it yet or it is listed in our Missing Crew Photos page.
