She was named MAIDEN MONTANA because the officers were all from Montana. My husband, Donald G. Graf (Radio Operator), was also the artist. Sadly, he passed away in 1997. Since then, I have kept in touch with 3 of the crew members and a widow of another, but only by exchanging Christmas cards. We used to see them at the 5th Bomb Group reunions, but the last one we were able to attend was in Fort Worth, Texas, in 1989. The crew were members of the 23rd Bomb Squadron.
