History of the 313th Bomb Group
-
6th Bomb Group
The
6th Bombardment Group site is dedicated to William Santavicca, a member
of the 6th Bomb Group, 39th Bomb Squadron, 313th Bomb Wing, located
on Tinian in 1945. Bill was the first B-29 veteran to trust me with
his photographs and his stories when I first started the site way back
in 1995 and has given me most of the information for these 6th Bomb
Group pages. I would also like to give a special thanks to Joseph Majeski,
also of the 6th Bomb Group, 40th Squadron, 313th Bombardment Wing, for
loaning me some valuable books from which I have taken photographs and
information.
