Re: USS Louisville SOC crews lost in 1942

The pilot lost on 1 February 1942 was Lt Edward Hicks Worthington along with his radio operator/observer Joseph Alonzo Barr, Jr.

This link has the story:

Mentioned also here (notes the possibility of the loss due to the weather) :

They were on an antisubmarine patrol, and were to stay within 5 miles of the task force. The weather turned bad, no one saw the Seagull go down.
