I am looking for information about my uncle who was killed at the tanunaban air strip as a T-6 army trainer hit the crash shack on the airstrip. His name was Edward S. Seward and the report was PC-0294005. He was a seargant with the 1721 Signal Service Corp and was a medic or lab specialist. He was buried at Palo cemetary grave #5631 and later exhumed and buried in Murfreesboro, Tennessee. I am looking for details of the crash or any information related to my uncle. Can anyone help me with suggested research sites? His record was destroyed in the St. Louis Fire at the Army Personnel Records Center in St. Louis. I am trying to reconstruct as much of it as possible.

Thanks.

You can request his military records/DD-214 from NARA either by next of kin or under F.O.I.A...under FOIA you may only recieve partial records
