Re: Saipan - 30 June 1944 - Lt. James W. O'Neil - USN plane
Must reply myself.... Reading on in the COMCARDIV 25 War Diary, it says on 30 June:
"During morning VT from MIDWAY shot down over SAIPAN west coast by enemy AA. Pilot parachuted safely. Observer 27th Infantry, U.S. Army and aircrewman killed in crash.".
Pilot likely to have been Lt T(homas?) Franco. Who was the aircrewman?
Regards,
Leendert
