Re: Engine wreck ID
The shot was from E-Bay.de. I was scrolling using Flugzeug Fotos and saved the photograph. Unfortunately, though
I have looked for a serial number, no luck.
The two B-24D that crashed and broke up in the dry Prahova river bed are:
B-24D, 42-40753, J, 564th BS. 389th BG-Pilot Lt. Lloyd D. Hughes (MOH) 2 POW,8 KIA
B-24D,42-40735, C, 566th BS, 389th BG-Pilot Lt. Robert W. Horton, 2 POW, 8 KIA.
This is information is from the book "The Ploesti Raid Through The Lens" by R. Freeman.
