34™ Bomb
Group Marshalling Chart May 24, 1944 at 2140 hours
Transcribed by Gary Ferrell, 34th Bomb Group Association, January 2003, updated
with corrections in April 2004.
The document only gives the last four digits of the serial number. I have added
the rest plus the names, when known and other identifying notes.
Hardstands are number from the control tower, clockwise around the field back
to the tower.
