Death In The Desert: The Lady Be Good..

Once Mission 109 was completed, and it was discovered that Lady Be Good was missing, rumors abounded about a B-24 that had gone down in flames over Naples.  Naturally, this aircraft was assumed to have been Lady Be Good.  In truth, the only bomber missing was one that was designated "Number 64".  It took a little time, but it came to light that Liberator Number 64 was, in fact, Lady Be Good.  Further, no B-24's were shot down in flames during Mission 109.  The only airplane that was unaccounted for was Lady Be Good.

To be continued.
