BUSH, DONALD


BUSH, DONALD 1917?  AAF

The name is on the plaque. But finding anything about him has proved difficult. How many of us will leave so little traces of our existence? There was a Bush family in Calif. with a Donald – he was born in Michigan but they lived in Calif. in the 1930’s and the dates mean he could not have attended Redford. He was a Donald W., likely the Radio Operator gunner who went missing on a plane doing a sea sweep in Feb. 1943. Then there is the Bush family in Lansing, but if they lived there in 1935 he also would not have been an age to attend Redford. Common names prove difficult to search, especially without a useful second bit of information.
A high school photo is the trace I can find of Donald…
