The inscription read For Lynn Wenrick Best Wishes Carroll Steward "CAL". Stewart (1918-2007) -was a military man who made a career as a reporter and journalist. He was the founder of the Sun newspaper in Lincoln, NE, in 1961. He also wrote a monograph on friend Ben Kuroki that was used as the basis for an ETV documentary. Stewart served with Kuroki in World War II. Stewart's book Ploesti: The Great Ground-Air Battle of August has been called the definitive history of one of the greatest aviation battles in history; the book has been translated into at least 4 languages. The Japanese-American Kuroki was a gunner on 58 bomber missions in World War II, then used his notoriety to speak out against racial bigotry. Stewart served in the same bomb group as Kuroki, and in 2005, he worked with others to see Kuroki receive the Distinguished Service Medal, the military's third highest decoration. Stewart's monograph on Kuroki helped others understand his many achievements and struggles against racism. During World War II, the 93rd Bombardment Group was the first VIII Bomber Command Consolidated B-24 Liberator group to bomb targets in Occupied Europe and Nazi Germany. It flew from RAF Alconbury in Cambridgeshire. The group became operational with a mission over Occupied France on 9 October 1942. He was trained as a radio operator. He worked for an English printing press owner, who allowed him to produce a tabloid weekly called The Liberator, the first service publication in the European Theater. The military, which had not authorized the publication, shut it down on the grounds that newsprint needed to be rationed. Shortly thereafter, the military came out with a London edition of Stars and Stripes. Stewart got noticed by Col. Ted Timberlake, commander of the 93rd Bomb Group. Timberlake, upon being promoted to general, made the young Nebraskan his staff aide. Stewart worked alongside Col. Jimmy Stewart, the actor and knew war correspondents Walter Cronkite and Andy Rooney. After Stewart published "Ted's Travelling Circus," he got a letter from Rooney. "He said 'It was the best unit history that I've ever read,'" Scott Stewart said. The 93rd Bombardment Group would become the pioneer B-24 Liberator unit in the Eighth Air Force and history's most traveled, most colorful and, arguably, most efficient fighting machine. By Summer 1942, the 93rd had 'killed' at least one German U-boat in the Caribbean. The 93rd made war from England against staggering Luftwaffe fighter and anti-aircraft defenses. Reference to the 93rd was censored; expedience dictated a nickname -- Ted's Travelling Circus . A half-century later, the 93rd's untold story of uncommon valor, improvisation and raw talent in action comes this gripping saga, stitched mostly from combatant testimony . This is an account compellingly woven into chronological context of the greatest conflict of all time"--Dust jacket. The 93rd Bombardment Group was activated on 1 March 1942. It was engaged in antisubmarine operations over the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean Sea as part of the III Bomber Command, May July 1942. The group moved to England and was assigned to Eighth Air Force. The group flew its B-24 Liberator aircraft with a tail code of "Circle B". The 93rd was the first Liberator-equipped bomber group to reach the Eighth Air Force. The group on 9 October 1942 attacked steel and engineering works at Lille France. On 6 December 1942 most of the group was transferred to Twelfth Air Force in North Africa to support the Operation Torch landings. The group receiving a Distinguished Unit Citation for operations in that theater. The detachment personnel were featured on the cover of the 26 July 1943 issue of Life Magazine and the unit d.
