Re: B-24 Accident at Vis Island January 20,1945-465 BG

Hi all
Royal air force station Vis reported on 20.01.1945 that 1 B 24 crashed in flames near landing strip. Only one survivor who bailed out form 150 ft.
sources;
http://465th.org/History/PDFs/783rd%20History.pdf (page 96)

https://www.451st.org/Stories/Pdfs/A...%201943-45.pdf (page 26)
"in updated version of Allied presence on Vis Niall Brannigan mention the name of lone survivor Sgt. Arnold Robert F. (not published yet)"

I was not able to confirm the serial number due to lack of MACR or accident report...
b.r.
