E.C. Bombardier sleuth tracks down vets DAPHNE, Ala. (AP) Tucked away in a computer in an apartment in coastal Alabama are the names of thousands of men who were war bombardiers. Some 35,000 names were compiled during years of research by E.C. "Ned" Humphreys Jr., a bom- bardier sleuth. "We know of about another 10,000 names I'm adding to the computer. We have to ease it in in our daily administration involving the computer," he said. Humphreys, a re- tired Air Force colonel, said he began the research in Michigan before moving to Spanish Fort, a community on the eastern shore of Mobile Bay. He rented an apartment just to house the four personal computers. bombardiers are in their late 60s or early 70s. He started collecting the veter- ans' names on telephone index cards about 10 years ago. "I had about 46 names at that time," he said. But when he moved the names into a computer, he said, "the top floor of my Michigan house turned into a bombardiers workroom." Hum- phreys founded Bombardiers Inc., which publishes a quarterly newsletter, Crosshairs, now distributed to about 4,800 addresses. "We ask per year that anybody supporting us consider donating $15," he said. He's in a race against time, however. He said most of the World War II "We're maintaining a com- puter list of the deceased, while still learning the identity of those killed in action." In some cases, he only had the World War II addresses as clues to the whereabouts of the veterans. "We're dying off like flies." said Max Springer, 68, the communications manager at Tinker Air Force Base in Oklahoma City, Okla. Springer was an Air Force major with 21 years of active duty. "I didn't fly missions in World War H," he said. "I flew in Korea and we dropped bombs by electronic means."
