B-25D and crew- Missing 11 May 1943 - s/n 41-(000)3?

[Leendert]

Received some interesting info. B-25 41-30003 was taken from the list on 4 June 1943, so some three weeks after it went missing and almost a week before searches for the crew stopped.
B-25 was destined for the 12th AF in N. Africa and crew came from 470th BS, 334th BG, a combat crew replacement unit.
Likely destination for them was either 320th or 321st BG.

Entry of "41-0003" on accident and perhaps other reports probably a typing error that started its own life ever since.

Regards,
