Crew of B-24H 42-94841 ‘Sack Time!’

Eight of these ten men were on board 42-94841. This photo was taken in the US in May 1944 and naturally does not show the two passengers, Cpl Clarence S Watson and Cpl Charles T Lowblad.

   Looks like it`s crashed on a runway doesn`t it ?

   Certainly the damage doesn`t indicate a high impact…

   Hi Ian I’m related to Clarence Watson who wasn’t shown in the picture but died in the crash. Do you have any more photos?
