Graham, serial # O-772347, was killed in India on August 7th 1945 when his C-47, (43-15831), from Ondal, India to Tezpur, India. His plane crashed and burned along with two other crew members, Lytle and Flohr died as well. He was entitled to a Distinguished Flying Cross, Air Medal w/ Oak Leaf Cluster and Purple Heart. His name is listed on a roster of KIA and missing for the 7th bomb group. All leather patches and blood chit were made in country. All have stitch marks so were in fact worn on a flight coat.
