Mr. Griffin.

had since the beginning here, and that the oath which you took on Tuesday morning is still in effect.

Mr. Senator.

Now on this here, of course, this goes hack many, many years. This is just the location that is a location and not a name of a person.

Mr. Griffin.

Point out what it is.

Mr. Senator.

"About 1934 he returned to Gloversville and left there with neighbors, the Sebring family to go to Florida." Now, Sebring, it is a city, not people.

Mr. Griffin.

You didn't leave with the Sebring family?

Mr. Senator.

No.

Mr. Griffin.

You left to go to Sebring, Fla.?

Mr. Senator.

Went to Sebring, Fla.

Mr. Griffin.

Who did you go to Sebring, Fla. with?

Mr. Senator.

The name was Eggens.

Mr. Griffin.

They were neighbors from Gloversville?

Mr. Senator.

Yes; they were neighbors from Gloversville. They lived for many, many years in Lake Placid, N.Y., and I went with them and, of course, today their whereabouts--I know the mother is deceased--and where they are I don't know. I haven't seen them in a zillion years.
"On August 21, 1941, he entered the Army Air Force and was assigned serial number 12006042." I probably should comment is off there. It doesn't really make any difference. "He served mainly as an aerial armorer with the Fifth Bomber Command 33d Group in Australia and Pacific Theater during World War Second."
There is a correction on that. • I was with the 22d Bomber Group 33d Bomb Squadron. That is the only correction on that, if you want that.

Mr. Griffin.

Yes; that is fine because we are happy to have that. In fact why don't you take your pen and make that correction right on the piece of paper?

Mr. Senator.

How can I get it on there, they are so close together.

Mr. Griffin.

Cross out something and write it in

Mr. Senator.

To go through this whole thing I would have to say I was with the Fifth Air Force, Fifth Bomber Command. Well, the Fifth Bomber Command is there. Do you want Fifth Air Force?

Mr. Griffin.

Is there something that is inaccurate in there?

Mr. Senator.

The only thing is I was with the 22d Bomb Group, 33d Bomb Squadron.

Mr. Griffin.

So what you want to do is write out in the margin.

Mr. Senator.

Do you want me to cross this out?

Mr. Griffin.

Why don't you just change the 33d Group to 33d Squadron. Change group to squadron, and then add what the bomber group was.

Mr. Senator.

22d Bomber Group.

Mr. Griffin.

Yes; with a little caret or asterisk being there to indicate where you want it to go.

Mr. Senator.

I don't know how important it is, if you want the Fifth Air Force before or we can eliminate it.

Mr. Griffin.

In order to identify that group that you were in----

Mr. Senator.

In other words, it relates this way. You start off Fifth Air Force, Fifth Bomber Command, if you want this whole thing, 22d Bomb Group when I was with the 33d Bomb Squadron if you want that.

Mr. Griffin.

Write Fifth Air Force in.

Mr. Senator.

Do you want that?

Mr. Griffin.

Sure.

Mr. Senator.

I don't know where to put it. Do you want me to put it on top here?

Mr. Griffin.

Sure.

Mr. Senator.

Fifth Air Force comes first.

Mr. Griffin.

So we have edited this to read "He served mainly as an aerial armorer with the Fifth Air Force, Fifth Bomber Command, 22d Bomb Group, 33d Squadron in Australia and Pacific Theater during World War II." Why don't you initial and date the changes?

Mr. Senator.

Is one sufficient for the whole?
