Arrow Glenn E. Webb, SSgt USAAF

The Patriot Guard Riders have been invited to attend the Services and Interment of WWII MIA/KIA USAAC SSG. Glenn E. Webb on 19 Nov. 2010 in Wetumka, Oklahoma.

http://www.pacificwrecks.com/aircraf.../41-18585.html

SSG Webb has been on the MIA/KIA list for 68 years and his remains have been recently discovered and are being repatriated to his Family in Wetumka. Church Services will be at First Methodist Church, 205 E Broadway, Wetumka, Okla. (time and date TBD) Services will be by Williamson Spradin Funeral Home, 221 S. Main St. Wetumka, Okla. (time and date TBD) Internment will follow in Wetumka Cemetery. Honor Guard will be provided.

SSG Webb's only surviving sister passed away several years ago and left her quest to find her Beloved Brother to her Daughter, Teresa of Wetumka. Teresa has recently been contacted about the location of her Uncle Glenn Webb and is at this time awaiting the arrival of his remains that are currently in Hawaii.

SSG Webb was the Co-Pilot of the C-47-DL "Maxine", Tail #VH-CFL that crashed in New Guinea on October 16, 1942 while dropping supplies to ground troops. (see link above)

Teresa has recently found someone still in Wetumka who knew her Uncle and in doing research, found an old newspaper clipping of when her Uncle was a Boy Scout, being credited with saving the life of a young man who was severely hurt.
