“I believe my uncle, William "Bill" Baldwin was Mr Nilsen's crew-mate on "American Beauty" during WWII. If Mr Nilsen did serve with my uncle and you have any photos of the crew or plane that you could send along by email, or stories that he may have shared of that time, i would greatly appreciate it. My email address is [email protected]. My condolences. Bill Baldwin 443-986-1562”
