Hi James,
Sgt William Martsch of Paul,ID was with the 385th Bomb Group, 550th Squadron on 42-102481 "Kentucky Winner" on 18 March 1945 when it failed to return and landed on the continent and later salvaged. Martsch was KIA and the remaining 8 crewmen were all returned to duty. MACR 13141 is available by contacting Lynn.Gamma@MAXWELL.AF.MIL free of charge.
