36th BS
Williams Crew

Only six of those killed are in this picture, as it was taken at Dunkeswell,UK, sometime previous to the Group reassignment to Alconbury. The aircraft pictured here (Slightly Dangerous), has the typical ASW paint scheme, quite different from the all-black planes the Group would later fly.

Status: An original ASW crew, Williams was Operations Officer for the 36th BS when he went down and was replaced by Benjamin Mead. While not flying any Carpetbagger combat missions, the officers had probably flown one or two combat missions with the RAF/SOE squadrons prior to the crash. Men were sent to pick up the bodies in Special Orders #85,dtd 28Dec43 issued from Alconbury (Sta 102).
