I'm always pleased to receive additional information on the crew, and now especially thrilled to have a fifth family member on board.
At this time I'm patiently waiting to hear back from the relative so that maybe she'll give me permission to divulge her identity and possibly share her family photos and stories too. She was kind enough to share this interesting advertisement from WWII illustrating the use of "Dye markers". These are the same type of dye markers which our fellows would have used if they'd had the chance and the same which search planes would drop to mark an area of interest.
I'm quite sure adds such as this gave many a worrying parent some added peace of mind and helped to keep-up the morale back on the home-front.
