Beech UC-43 - crash 19 Dec 1946 - serial?

AAIR mentions a US Embassy UC-43 Traveler crash on 19 Dec 1946 (France).

Serial listed is "8871".
Accident-report.com says 43-8871 for this accident, but Joe Baugher gives a Baltimore V, RAF FW714 for this one.

Also USN BuNo 8871 was an F6F-3 Hellcat, it appears.

There has been a NC8871, but this was a Beech Travel Air 2000.

Who can link "8871" with a US military or civil registration?

Any info welcome, thanks.

Regards,

Leendert
