Hello,
My name is Pieter Lenting. A friend of me has adopted a grave at the American Cemetery at Margraten in the Netherlands. The grave belongs to Sgt Donald D Pippitt. Who died on 20 December 1943. Armee Sr number: 20724992. S/Sgt Donald D. Pippitt was the tail gunner aboard B-24H 42-7510, El Lobo. All reports agree that S/Sgt Pippitt's tail turret and the plane's starboard rudder were suddenly severed from the rest of the plane and that he fell to his death. His turret landed on a small island of Texel for the Dutch coastline. We are looking for info about Sgt Pippitt.

The exact date of birth.
Names of his parents.
Where he lived.
Newspaper articles if available.
A picture if available
If he had brothers and/or sisters.
If there are still relatives.

Hopefully you can help us. Already thanks for the efforts.
