Re: B-25C ACCIDENTS USA

Alex,
Please note that RCAF Pilot Officer Henry Thompson Rennie (J/17126) was also member of this B-25 crew. He's buried in the same collective grave.

From RAF Commands (2018) discussing P/O Rennie:
On the afternoon on March 22nd, 1943, Captain Ingram and his crew led our American bomber formation to an enemy target. Immediately after accurately dropping its bombs, the airplane received a direct burst of anti-aircraft fire. The bomber dropped out of formation, very much under control, and crossed back into friendly territory, headed for an advanced landing ground. Just a few miles short of it destination, the airplane went into a spin and crashed. The entire crew died instantly.

Leendert
