42-110187 "Up In Arms" 789th B.S. Additional Remarks: Formerly with the
491st BG the ship appears flying combat with the 467th, 789th
Squadron from early June 44. The ship was lost on the 29th
June 44 mission to Aschersleben after being struck by flak
shortly after bombs-away. Tragically, only Pilot Bill Counts survived the incident and
was taken POW. Dramatic photo of
the incident is on Photo Gallery Eight. |
