When the B-24J Liberator crashed on April 12, 1944, there were 10 people on board. Only the pilot was killed; the other crew members escaped death (4 fled and 5 were taken prisoner). The pilot of the B-24J “Tennessee Dottie” was First Lieutenant John B. Anderson, who was killed in the crash. The other crew members bailed out during the attack; 4 managed to escape and 5 were captured as prisoners of war by the Germans.
