Edwin W. Ritter.

Sgt. Edwin W. Ritter (ASN 16070712) served as Ball Turret Gunner on the same aircraft as 2nd Lt. Boggan on the mission of 1 August 1944, north of Paris near St Denis. Boggan stated that he believed all crew members had sufficient warning to bail out, as the emergency bell was rung in adequate time. However, he saw only two parachutes open after leaving the aircraft and had no contact with any other crew members after landing. Ritter's fate following the bailout is unknown from this document.
