Monument

B-17 #43-38175 “I’ll Be Seeing You” also known as “’Til We Meet Again” was hit by flak while on a mercy flight on September 18, 1944, after having left Framlingham, England, to begin Mission #191. Part of a mission of mercy to airdrop canisters of food, weapons, and medical supplies to the bedraggled Polish Underground Army in Warsaw during what became known as "The Warsaw Uprising", the "I'll Be Seeing You" was accompanied by 107 other B-17's, as well as 152 fighters. During this mission, the plane was hit by German flak. Three men managed to bail out successfully before the bomber hit the ground. Unfortunately, they drifted into an area north of Warsaw that was already in the hands of German SS troops. As they slowly fell to earth, they were raked by gunfire. One man was killed, while the other two were captured and spent four months in Nazi POW camps. The pilot and the other six members of his crew were killed when the bomber hit the ground and exploded. The "I'll Be Seeing You" was the only plane lost in the mission.

The crew members were:
