41st BOMB GROUP MEMORIAL

Though nearly fifty three years have passed since the 41st Bomb Group was deactivated, many of its members have joined together in comaradarie through the years in reunions and correspondence one with another. For many years a Group Memorial was envisioned and it came to fruition on March 28, 1998 when this edifice was dedicated. Five members representing each organizational element of the Group came from over land to participate in its dedication.
