My Grandfather was 1st lieutenant "Augustus John Philbin Gallagher" of the 213th Aero Squadron, he survived the sinking, and I still have the telegram's from the War Department. I have sent the photo I promised you, it was actually a postcard, on the back he wrote: For Mary (my grandmother) and Martha (my Aunt) and John (my dad) and it was dated 3/29/1918. So this must have been taken in London, just after the sinking!
