Mr. and Mrs. U.J. Gandee, of Kenna and Charleston, have received a message from their son, Pfc. Howard Lee Gandee, saying that he has arrived safely overseas somewhere in the Southwest Pacific war zone. His brother, Sgt. Harold Gandee, is stationed in Tampa, Florida.
Harold Gandee, son of Mr. and Mrs. U. J. Gandee, of Kenna and Charleston, has arrived safely in England.
The War Department has notified Mr. and Mrs. Uriah J. Gandee, of Kenna, that their son, Harold Gandee, is missing in action following a bombing raid over Nazi held territories in Europe from which his plane failed to return. The young flier was a gunner on a Flying Fortress and had been participating in the bombing mission over Germany territory for some time. He had been overseas with the Army Air Corps for several months in the European theatre of the war. He is one of two sons of Mr. and Mrs. Gandee who are serving their country in this war, the other being Howard Gandee, who is with the Marines in the South Pacific. The parents were promised by the War Department more information, if and when it is available, and the family and the young flier's many friends cling to the hope that possibly he was able to parachute to earth after his plane was shot down and that he may be a prisoner of war. (Friday. May 5, 1944)
