Crew Note:
The Capuano Crew was one of ten crews (91 men) to be assigned to the 303rd
BG(H) on 16 & 17 April 1945. These crews were the last to be assigned to the
303rd BG(H) at Molesworth. They arrived too late to fly any combat missions, but
these last ten crews are all a very significant part of the 303rd BG(H)
history and heritage.
The ten no-mission crews were:
- 358BS - Kennard, Klimback
- 359BS - Capuano, Jannuzzo, Kielman
- 360BS - Hunsinger, McCormack, Vukovich, Wolford
- 427BS - Catich
