Description

Keith Cole, born in Muskegon, Michigan, in 1924, served in the U.S. Army Air Corps from 1942-1945 in England during World War II. After completing his training at Miami Beach, Keith was sent to England in 1943 where he was assigned to the 22nd Anti Submarine Group. Keith was then sent to Herington Air Field where he served as an Engineer on B-24 bombers utilized by the OSS. These aircraft dropped operatives and supplies for the Resistance in France, and were also pressed into service to ferry supplies to American units that had outrun the ground supply system. Keith was sent home soon after VE Day and was discharged in late summer of 1945.
