Carlos Vasquez
Sortie Log
12 SEP 1944 — 10 JAN 1945
The sorties below are those we have been able to document for this airman, drawn from flight logs, mission records, and archival sources. It is not necessarily a complete account of every mission flown; gaps may reflect missing documentation, transferred assignments, or records lost to time.
Carlos Vasquez flew as a senior combat pilot in the 330th Bomb Squadron, accumulating enough missions to hold that distinction through the winter of 1944 into 1945. He finished his tour in early February 1945 and rotated out — one of the experienced pilots who had seen the campaign through its most difficult stretch and made it home.
When Vasquez left, the role of senior combat pilot in the squadron passed to Walter Hughes, who held it through the final weeks of the war until completing his own tour in April 1945.
