Re: B-24s of 7th BG lost over Rangoon in March 1943
Could it be a typo for 31 March, because in "Air War for Burma" there is mention of a fight between 7th BG and 64 Sentai on this date (with an unconfirmed episode where an US airman after baling out was strafed under his parachute by a Japanese fighter, played dead and then shot back with his pistol when the Japanese pilot came close, believing he killed him).
Still, the ABMC database and the USAAFDATA American Air Forces lives lost during WW2 both have numerous airmen lost on 13 March 1943, even if both said Baldwin died on 13 July 1943 (a typo? died as POW?). Edited: the link below says that Baldwin did not survive on 13 March 1943. https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/...ames-w-baldwin |
