320th BS Liberator shot down 20 Jul 1943 - id?

Danish born US War Correspondent Carl Thusgaard was on-board a 320th Bomb Squadron, 90th Bomb Group B-24 Liberator downed by Japanese fighters on 20 July 1943. According to my information the a/c was flown by Lt John B. Willcoxon and over the Madang area when attacked.

The circumstances are mentioned on this website (I have ordered, but not yet received Word's book on the 90th BG)

Would anyone be able to identify this aircraft?
