US Airmen where buried ?
 

Hi,
I have been searching for the Burial place for the following 3 airmen.

Date of death was 21st April, 1942.

Pvt. William V, Bedford - 39303940.
Klamath County, Oregon.

Pvt. Nick Hinich - 36022487.
Cook County, Illinois.

Cpl. Ray E, Love - 13032649.
Henrico County, Virginia.

They were passengers of an aircraft that crashed in Australia.
Ten were killed, I have details of Burial place of the other seven, just cannot get anything for these three.

Thanks
Alex

Thanks again,

Sadly cannot find Bedford or Love anywhere .

The bodies of Bedford and Love (and probably others in the crash) were returned to the US in February 1948.

My grateful thanks Rolland,
Have no idea as to why it was so difficult to find them in the usual NA sites.
However I am unable to see the newspaper cuttings, any chance you could copy/paste and send to me by my email ?

All the best
Alex
