The Man Behind the Name
§ Biography
2nd Lt. Joseph V. Papp served as bombardier on the crew lost on 20 June 1944 over Germany. The MACR serial number field is partially illegible; a separate Action Sheet for Determination of Status confirms his ASN as 0-1,030,281. His next of kin was listed as Mrs. Joseph A. Brantley at 3635 Neilson Avenue, Youngstown, Ohio, likely his wife under a variant name.
An Action Sheet (case of Papp, Joseph V., ASN 0-1,030,281) was opened after he was reported missing on 20 June 1944 in Germany. His ultimate fate is not resolved in the available MACR documents.
He is buried at the Ardennes American Cemetery at Neupré, Belgium (Plot A, Row 34, Grave 8).
