Re: Help Needed in Seattle

I have looked at the website mentioned but it does not serve my purpose, which is to check whether there is a contemporary account of the Scratch B-25 flight re Seattle. The Vancouver papers wrote it up without mentioning the Seattle visit. Ken Mclean advises us that a Toronto paper wrote it up, without mentioning the Seattle visit. Neither does Seattle figure in the accident investigation proceedings, the diary of Western Air Command or the OTU diary.

Other details appearing in accounts published 50 years after the event do not gell with contemporary documents, and I am trying to sort out historical fact from recollections "spam".
