Military cemetery in Townsville 1943

  • Vesna Verencevic said:
    On 8 April 1943, B-25C Mitchell #41-12904, "Half Pound Mary" of the 71st Bomb Squadron of the 38th Bomb Group crashed 8 miles north east of Townsville while undergoing an overhaul at the 4th Air Depot. The following crew members were buried at the US Military Cemetery Townsville on 12 April 1943. Carlow, D.T. Atkinson, Courtney B. Neyley, Paul L. Haggerty, John J. Jnr. Peter Murray in Townsville in November 2013 commented that there is some doubt about the accuracy of the caption on the above photograph. After some collaborative research with Peter Murray, it is now confirmed that the above caption under the burial photograph is incorrect in stating that all men were members of the 2nd Service Squadron. Carlow, Atkinson, Neyley, and Haggerty, who were killed in this crash, were buried along with men from two other crashes and two men from the 91st Engineers on 12 April 1943.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_occupation_of_Veracruz has a photo apparently taken at much the same time. That photo has a hand-written caption: "Formal raising of first flag of U.S. / Veracruz 2 P.M. April 27, 1914" Photograph by Hadsell taken during the U.S. occupation of Veracruz, 1914."
