Notes - “[Norvin] was stationed on Shemya Island in the Aleutian
Islands of Alaska, at Shemya Army Airfield, for all of 1944. He was
assigned to the 11th Air Force, 404th Bombardment Squadron.
[He] turned 18 on February 8, 1943, so of course he was drafted. He was eligible for an educational deferment, however, as he was still in
school until the summer of 1943. After he finished out the semester, he
reported for duty with the army. They sent him to basic training at
Keesler AFB in Biloxi, Mississippi, and then on to radar school in Boca
Raton, Florida. He became a radar mechanic for the B-24 Liberator heavy
bomber, and was sent to the Aleutians, where he worked on the planes
that would be sent over to Japan to do bombing and strafing runs.” [2]
