Re: B-24 shot down by Me-262 Photo!

The B-24 "Red Bow" being discussed above.

World War II Pilot Remains Returned to Family. Pilot Lt. Robert Mains perished when his plane was shot down south of Hamburg, just a month before Germany’s surrender. His remains were identified by forensic scientists using DNA evidence, 72 years after his death. They arrived Wednesday evening in a flag-draped coffin at Long Island MacArthur Airport in Ronkonkoma, for burial at Calverton National Cemetery on Saturday.
