Description: Crashed on January 2, 1944 as a result of damage incurred during an attack on the Japanese airbase of Taroa.

Eight of the crew members survived and were housed and fed by the Marshallese on Arno Atoll from January 3 to January 16, 1944, on which date a Japanese patrol boat arrived from Taroa and captured them. The airmen were taken to Maloelap Atoll where they remained until January 20, 1944.
