B-24H 42-52585

Hello gentlemen!

On 19.07.1944 the B-24 H 42-52585 "Section Eight" crashed
near Amtzell. This aircraft was damaged by Flak over Munich.
The whole crew bailed out, and the aircraft crashed into a
farmhouse at Stahrenberg. This are the coordinations:
47°43´45.40``N----9°45`21.12``O
Four inhabitants were killed.
This is a crewlist i have found:
Pilot Orville J. Heim
Copilot Carl W. Lundberg
Navigator E. Burke Huber
Bomb. William P. Sheridan
Eng. Floyd E. Gregory
Radio Jack E. Walters
Gunner James L. Cady
Gunner Edward M. Reagan
Gunner Richard H. Trimingham
Gunner Weyland B. Feely
All POW. Is this correct?
I also found a different information concerning the loss of
Richard H. Trimingham-24.08.44, B-24H 41-29424, "Sans Souci" POW
Was it usual to change the crew?
Is there any additional information concerning the loss of 42-52585
available?
Thank you in advance!

Herzliche Grüsse aus Oberschwaben,

Wolfgang
