Hello !
I'd need some informations to 42-100265, MACR 2720

particularly about the fate of two crew members:
1) Gunner 2: 33238246, Arthur C. Bare (Missed)
2) Gunner 7: 33226865, Arthur C Melius (Killed)

Found?, brought home and buried in US ?

Thank you

Emmerich

Robert C Bare Robert C Bare (1921-2010) - Find a Grave Memorial
Regarding S/Sgt. Arthur C,MELIUS, 33226865 there is page 2 within the MACR which states -
Captured : Wounded: Recovered - Dead.
Grave location: Soldiers Cemetery in MARCHTRENK 28 February 1944.


So it looks like his remains were recovered poste WW2 and re buried.
