Re: Death of VX136033 T/Capt. Francis Edgar Williams.

Col.,

Perhaps the name of Lt Keefer on one of the pages is a lead? Report indeed says C-47 "76".
On a website I found that a 6th TCS (also) had crashed on 12 May 1943 "in the pass". This one other than the 21st TCS C-47 identified as 41-18661 by pacificwrecks.

Also a news report of 1943 with some further details about William's mission ("Treachery in New Guinea") and what seem to be more correct spellings of names.
