Jarick did have her mentioned her in this topic http://www.axis-and-allies-paintworks.com/e107_plugins/forum/forum_viewtopic.php?840.post. But didn't find any other topic about her, so here goes..

The crew got lost on the return to Benghazi and flew 350 miles into the Libyan desert,bailing out when the plane ran out of gas. They were never seen alive again.

1stLt. William Hatton-Pilot

2ndLt. John Woravka-Bombardier
Tech. Sergeant Harold Ripslinger-Flight Engineer
Tech. Sergeant Robert LaMotte-Radio Operator
Staff Sergeant Guy Shelley-Gunner

It is a truly a sad story of a crew on their first and last mission. More info here: www.qmfound.com/lady_be_good_b-24_bomber_recovery.htm

Her remains are basically rotting away in a back lot in Tobruk as of last year.

What a shame
