Victim of a freak accident which sent her own bombs splintering thro her. aluminum underside and into the controU, the 7th AAF Liberator Bomber “Bird of Paradise,” whose tail gunner is Cpl. WUliam C. LivG^ of Camden, wobbled 570 miles back from I wo Jims to crash uncontroll ably in the sea within sight of an airstrip. The Liberator had encountered heavy and accurate ack-ack fire over the urget. Flak ripped scores of holes In the wings. But, according to Cpl. Little, a well-aimed anti-aircraft shtll caught the bomber’s cluster of fragmentation bombs Just as they were released. ’The freakish hit de tonated at least one or two of the bombs, spraying the belly of the plane with the explosives that a moment before were htaded in the other di rection. "Our hydraulic system was knock ed out,” Cpl. Little related. “And pur rudder and air aileron controls were cut. ’The elevator cables were hit, too, bur still worked.” Stberlng the bomber by the throt tles, the pilot swerved away from the Island. Cither planes in the flight stayed with the crippled Liberator, but gave it plenty of room it weaved along. Gasoline leaked from punctured fuel cells, but before the loss became too great a crew member drained the fuel into empty tanks, be also spliced the shredded control cables, but even after hacking through a heating pipe with a knife to get at the aileron wires on the wing these vital cables re- malned out of- reach,- r isning itoau American Ashing boats brought in 4 ->{11100 pounds of food in 1943.

Stofner, Manager Telephone 109 1119 Broad Street As their base came Into view, the crew decided to ride the ’’Bird” in for a' shaky landing rather than "ditch” her offshore. When the dam aged hydraulic system - frustrated the first attempt, the pilot circled'‘Hway while tbe wheels were cranked down by band. On the second approach the pilot called for the flaps. As a crew member cranked them down the plane slid off on the right wing and into a turn. Pilot and co-pilot slammed Jiower Tnfb The rigM engines and called for the crew to prepare for ditching. Fifteen seconds later they crashed. Tbe huge plane broke in two on im pact, the tail portion sinking gt once. For a second or two the open waist yawned, enabling the mph in that section to leap into the, water. The pilot was thrown through the windshield while Corporal Little and the others struggled into the water through the escape batch, • Within a few minutes a PT boat pulled the survivors aboard. 'Two members of the crew and one observer are miss ing. “We borrowed ‘Bird of Paradise’ from a crew that is back in Hawaii at a rest camp,” Corporal Little said, somewhat ruefully. “And now she’s sitting out In the water. They can’t Say I didn’t try to' get her back though.” Corporal Little’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. M. Little, live at 1204 Fair street, Camden. He was graduated from Camden High school and attend ed Clemson college. Prior to entering the army in Augt., 1942, he was em ployed as a line chief for tbe Southern Aviation School in Camden.
