An original 790th Squadron crew who sadly had the distinction of the first combat loss suffered by the 467th BG. Returning from the Groups' second combat mission and second for the "Devil's Hostess" crew, the ship crashed near Stalham approximately 10 miles north of Rackheath into a farmhouse. Seven of the crew were killed in the accident but three members did survive. See Casualties listing also scene of the accident that occurred on the 11th April 1944.
