The photo belongs to the remains of the B-24's serial number legible N ° 42 - 78,213 fell into the Bay of Agay, Cote d'Azur, after being shot down by German contaerea May 27, 1944. Local fishermen told us that apparently only one of the crew managed to escape, or so they told the elders, of course everything is still under investigation by authorities who have been informed. The plane belonged to the 15th USAAF, 454 BG, 736 BS. Their goal was to Montpellier and the airport nearby. Officially, it appears that the 10 men on board: 2 dead Asthe some corpses have been recovered, 4 missing, 4 died in combat, the plane probably also taken fire before crashing. The picture was taken only some time after the discovery that dates back to August 2008 The diver Philippe Castellano.
If anyone has information photographs of the crew between the collectors and fans let us know so we can pass information to the Smithsonian Institution ( GO TO THE SITE ) and organize recovery, while the Sea Tech still scuba diving demonstrations at the site of setting up so that these unfortunate airmen are not forgotten.
B-24 restored World War II, in turn, this is a specimen found in England in 89
