Re: B-57 USAF Canberra Crash

Name of Ables Jr. is given with the 8 Sep 1955 crash on website www.aviationarchaeology.com. Usually only the name of the pilot is mentioned there.

There was a fatal B-57 accident in Poolesville, Maryland, nearer to DC, on 8 Feb 1955, same 461st BG from Hill AFB, UT. Name of pilot here Capt. William Todd Jr. who got killed.
See https://www.newspapers.com/article/the-news/128862933/

Not sure if date matches with Ms. Brewer-Hoffstott's age at that date.
