Several streets at the Eygelshoven Army prepositioned Stocks-2 worksite are named after the B-17F Flying Fortress aircrew members who died near the APS-2 site, as well as the aircrew member who was never found. Pictured here is a street sign dedicated to 1st Lt. Harvey A. Manley, a bombardier in the B-17 who was killed in action at the age 23 when he and his fellow aircrew were shot down on Oct. 14, 1943. Other aircrew members memorialized with their own street signs at the Eygelshoven APS-2 worksite are 1st Lt. William J. Martin, 1st Lt. Donald P. Breeden, Sgt. Leonard R. Henlin and Sgt. Robert G. Wells. (Courtesy photo)
