SERGEANT HARRY W. WERNETH,
20, of Glendora NJ, a ball turret gunner on a B-17 Flying Fortress, was
killed in action while on his seventh mission of occupied Europe. A
graduate of Northeast High School in Philadelphia PA, where he was on
the swim team, Werneth had been overseas for only a month before he was
lost. His father, Harry C. Werneth, was presented with his Air Medal and
Purple heart at the Ferrying Command Air Base at New Castle DE. He was
survived by his parents, and a step-brother, Lt. Raymond Buseman. |
