Re: US Navy Parachute Incident July 16, 1929
The aircraft was XT3M-4, A-7224.
One propeller blade detached, following which the engine was torn from its mountings. Fortunately Erickson managed to land it with just minor damage.
I can confirm that it was Chief Radio Electrician O.E. Williams who jumped.
