Re: 29/01/44 :B-25 victims of Friendly Fire

The B-25 shot down was 42-87284 41st BG, 396th BS piloted by Harris C Taylor. The man who died, apparently drowned , was the bombardier/navigator Daniel Kritz. He was seen in the water near the nose of the plane after it ditched. Fire on the water and the suction of the plane going under were apparently contributing factors to his loss. The other 5 crewmen were rescued.
