This crash is in my area. I’ve visited the site(s) and know the history. There are some factual errors on this page. (See below for clarity)
….
On October 31, 1941 took off from Fort Douglas Airfield piloted by 1st Lt Leo M. H. Walker with four crew and four passengers including Sgt Eugene M Clemens on a flight bound for McClellan Field to replace the no. 3 engine. Due to bad weather, the bomber diverted to Reno, Nevada and remained at Reno for two days.
Fates of the Crew
The crew that bailed out landed safely and were rescued and returned to duty.
Search
After the crash, a search was conducted to find the bomber and the pilot’s remains. Two days after the crash, forest rangers located the crash site and recovered Walker’s remains in the cockpit.
