Eric "E-dub" Wilson, Electronic Warfare Officer; TSGt "Guns" Schultz, Tail Gunner; Captain Denver D. Robinson, Pilot, Crew Commander; and, presenting the award is Lt. Colonel Jack K. Farris, 62nd Bomb Squadron Commander.
I've lost track of most of them. But I know that Chuck left the service as a Captain, in around 1982 or so. I know Sandy made Major, at least. Larry made full Colonel and retired in 1996. I have no idea what happened to Eric or "Guns" but Smiling Jack Farris retired as a two star general...he should have been a five star!
