On 25th of February 1944 two planes crashed on the mountain Pokojisce near Ljubljana, Slovenia, former Yugoslavia. One was B24 ser. nr. 42-7765 and the other one was B17. In some sources it is mentioned with ser. nr. 42-31644 and in some with ser. nr. 42-31703. While 42-31644 most likely crashed in Germany , for the 42-31703 Kranj ( 40 km away from Pokojisce) is mentioned as the crash site. Please can someone give me more information about the plane and what happened with the crew? Thank you.
