Those of a certain age who remember the 1930s and 40s films like Jungle Book, The Thief of Bagdad and Black Narcissus may recognise the name Sabu. Sabu Dastagir - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia What I didn't know was that he became a US citizen, after moving to Hollywood, andflew 42 missions as a air gunner on USAAF B-24s in the Pacific, earning a DFC. He flew with 13th AF, 307th BG, 370th BS on "JANIE" 44-41535. I wonder how many other Indians flew with the USAAF?
