US Airmen where buried ?
Hi,
I have been searching for the Burial place for the following 3 airmen. Date of death was 21st April, 1942. Pvt. William V, Bedford - 39303940. Klamath County, Oregon. Pvt. Nick Hinich - 36022487. Cook County, Illinois. Cpl. Ray E, Love - 13032649. Henrico County, Virginia. They were passengers of an aircraft that crashed in Australia. Ten were killed, I have details of Burial place of the other seven, just cannot get anything for these three. Thanks Alex Last edited by Alex Smart; 23rd September 2025 at 03:59. |

The crash:
https://www.baaa-acro.com/crash/cras...reek-12-killed The bodies of Bedford and Love (and probably others in the crash) were returned to the US in February 1948. Ray Love Mentioned: https://www.newspapers.com/article/r...tch/181692265/ Bedford Mentioned: https://www.newspapers.com/article/t...ian/181692788/ |

My grateful thanks Rolland,
Have no idea as to why it was so difficult to find them in the usual NA sites. However I am unable to see the newspaper cuttings, any chance you could copy/paste and send to me by my email ? All the best Alex |
