Despite all the work Tighar members have put into researching The Maid and her pilot, Lt. Robert F. Elliott there are certain pieces of the jigsaw which remain elusive, and in the coming weeks I plan to post details of these missing pieces in the hope it may yield a breakthrough.
For the first Maid of Harlech research challenge, we have not as yet located a photo of The Maid prior to her forced landing at Harlech on September 27, 1942, so if any sharp-eyed forum members should locate a photo of a P-38 bearing the serial number 41-7677 or 17677 we would love to hear from you!.
