Re: Question as to who ws flying a B-24 on 22 Sept 1944

It's strange that no name on Accident-Report.com or 451st. accident registry; nor in daily report for 22nd. though incident mentioned.
There is an account by a 461BG member Leslie E. Toleen here of the collision on athe very busy airfield, still no names. Also a nice photo of Statton's P-47 (looks like "Dorothy") afterwards, apparently he injured his back but could have been much worse. X-00 suggests HQ.
