Someone can help us to identify these fragments? Thanks.

tmath30,
Do you have these pics of your great uncle and his gravesite?

You can see these pics and the story of that aircraft here:

Il Consolidated B-24 "Liberator" 41-23801

Don in So Cal.

I did not of him personally, but I did have the picture of his gravestone. Thank you very much. I am hoping to display a piece of the aircraft to honor him as I am a WWII history buff and the fact I have a family member that gave the ultimate sacrifice makes it that much more special.
