Hello, Tom. Yes, I have some info on Captain Bridget. He was a naval aviator, and staff operations officer for Patrol Wing TEN in the Philippines in 1941-2. I'm looking for a good photo of him for publication in my book on PW10. I can tell you he surrendered with Corrigidor, 9 May 1942, how he died and some of his service past, as well as details of his work in the PI. Lou
