New Boston, Ohio native, Staff Sergeant Vernon Moore was the other waist gunner, as well as the assistant radio operator aboard the aircraft. He was fond of reminding people that he and Roy Rogers were from the same city. Not surprisingly, Moore loved Western movies, and, at twenty-one years of age, he was the youngest member of Lady Be Good's crew.
Mission #109 was set to commence on April 3, 1943.
