KUSPA KILLED IN GERMAN RAID The day before a service note Appeared in The Tribune telling of the progress made by their son at the army air base at Dyersburg, Tenn., Mr. and Mrs. Stanley Kuspa, New Carlisle, this county were notified by the war department that the youth, Staff Sergt. Joseph A. Kuspa, 22, was Killed Nov. 29 during a bombing raid over Bremen, Germany.The Tribune received its information from the public relations section of the Dyersburg base Thursday and assumed that it was what, it was represented to be, spot news. Apparently Kuspa had completed his training as a Flying Fortress gunner some months ago and had been sent to England. He entered the air forces Sept 22, 1942. Besides his parents, Sergt. Kuspa is survived by a sister, Mrs. Kathryn Hojara, also of New Carlisle, this county. Sergt. Kuspa left the New Carlisle High school in his sophomore year to work on a farm in the vicinity of his home and was employed there until he entered the service.The South Bend Tribune South Bend, Indiana31 Dec 1943, Fri • Page 7
