My dad, Gilbert Millar, compiled a massive amount of information of evaders, friends, etc. I suggested and helped him create the relational database he handed off just before his death. I wonder what became of it. Almost every data field could be used to search. It was such an incredible piece of work and lightning fast.
Please take a look at the AFEES Member Stories Database at https://airforceescape.org/afees-member-stories/ on this website. We obtained this copy from the library of the 8th Air Force Historical Society. Could this be it?
Best wishes,
Bruce Bolinger
