Chester "Chet" Demers

Looking for any information or book(s) relating to my brother-in-law, Chester Demers, who was a tail bomber with the Flying Tigers during WWII & who was shot down over the China Sea in 1944.  His plane was named "Nip Nipper."  He was with the USAAF & not an AVG.  Any leads or info would be greatly appreciated.

My Uncle, John D. Clagett, was in the same theatre as Chester, and I think I remember that he spoke of the plane's name: "Nipper". John was not shot down, but was a Marine tail gunner.  He died 15 years ago, but lived at 4111 Marboro-Ritchie Road in Upper Marlboro, MD 20880, and I believe his brother or nephews still own the property - big farm - and photos could be there.  His sister-in-law, Kitty Clagett was younger and may still remember more..Tail gunners used to send packages back from Hawaii entitled: "boost-the-civialian-morale" packages
