In mid-May 2015 a Marina Del Rey Sportfishing boat captained by John Petrov raised his anchor with an 18’ to 20’ piece of aircraft wreckage attached. Note the cast metal structure with aluminum skin attached. Captain Petrov did not attempt to bring the wreckage on board, but he did GPS his position.

What had they found? Rick Oefinger of Marina Del Rey Sportfishing contacted www.aircraftwrecks.com wanting to know if we had any data regarding their most interesting find. Gary Fabian found the answer in his UB88.ORG data base. The wreck was most likely from the Douglas DC-8 LN-MOO flown by SAS that crashed into Santa Monica Bay at 7:22 P.M. on January 13, 1969 with forty-five passengers and crew on board. Fifteen lives were lost, but twenty-nine survived, seventeen of these with injuries. The empennage and tail section broke off and sank on impact, but the rest of the DC-8 floated and was salvaged. The cause of the accident was assigned by the NTSB to pilot error. (Photo courtesy Rick Oefinger)

Glen Graber went on to fly the North American Aviation FJ-3 Fury assigned to VF-142 at NAS Miramar.
On June 8, 1956 Lt. (jg) Glen E. Graber was tragically killed during a simulated combat training mission when his FJ-3 Bu No 139223 crashed in the rugged badlands northeast of March Air Force Base.

On March 17, 2017 the Project Remembrance Team visited the crash site of Lt. (jg) Glen E. Graber to honor his service and sacrifice. The flag of respect was placed among the wreckage of FJ-3 Bu No 139223, and a minute of silence was observed. (Photo by Pat J. Macha)

 

U.S. Navy Aviation Radioman 3rd Class Raymond L. Shovelton poses with his two sisters just three days before his tragic death on May 30, 1944. ARM3c Shovelton was a crewman aboard a Consolidated PB4Y-1 Bu No 31966 when his aircraft was struck by a Navy FM-2 Bu No 55086. All ten crewmen aboard the PB4Y-1, and the pilot of the FM-2 were killed in the mid-air collision near Mount Palomar, CA. (Photo courtesy Paul Cimbron)

On May 30, 1944 a formation flight of PB4Y-1 patrol bombers was attacked by a flight of Navy
FM-2 fighters engaged in aerial combat tactics training. Lt. (jg) R. E. Hermson misjudged simulated
firing pass when he collided with the PB4Y-1. This accident highlights the training losses within the U.S.A. during WWII that killed thousands of our airmen and women while in the service of our Nation. Wreckage of both the FM-1 and the PB4Y-1 remain to this day in a rugged chaparral environment where Poison Oak thrives near Birch Hill in San Diego County. (www.aircraftwrecks.com collection)

On February 28, 1945 U.S.A.A.F B-24J 42-95591 crashed in the rugged mountains southeast of Thermal, California. Nine air crewmen died, and one man who managed to bailout at the last moment sustained critical injuries. The cause of the accident was listed as severe air turbulence, followed by loss of control, and structural failure as the pilots attempted to regain control of the aircraft. This undated photo shows Corporal Frank B. Kerrigan in the front row on the right end. The B-24 in the background is an H model. Corporal Kerrigan was tragically killed on 2/28/45 while on a training mission in Consolidated B-24J 42-95591. (Photo Courtesy Jim Miller)
Corporal Frank B. Kerrigan, served as a gunner aboard the B-24 Liberator bomber and was one of the those who lost his life while in the service of our Nation. This photo was taken circa 1944 or January 1945 shortly before his death in February. (Photo Courtesy Jim Miller)
 
On 2/12/17 members of the Project Remembrance Team escorted family members of Cpl. Frank B. Kerrigan to the B-24J crash site in the rugged mountains southeast of Indio, CA.

 

Naval Aviation Cadet Donald F. Bolinski, shown in this 1944 photo, went on to proudly serve his country as a USMC combat fighter pilot in the Pacific Theatre of Operations, flying the Vought F4U Corsair. Following WWII he transitioned to rotary wing aircraft, serving with HMR-163, and flying the Sikorsky HRS-1 in combat during the Korean War. On June 3, 1953 Captain Bolinski was tragically killed returning from a search and rescue mission off the coast of Orange County, California. Captain Bolinski was 35 years of age at the time of his death. He was survived by his wife and four children. (Photo courtesy Karen Lusk

 

USMC 1st Lt. Wayne Morse was 30 years old at the time of his death on June 3, 1953. He was the copilot of Sikorsky HRS-1 Bu No 127788 assigned to HMR-163 that crashed in El Morro Canyon while returning from a search mission off the coast of Orange County, California. 1st Lt. Morse was survived by his wife and two children. Also killed in this accident was the HRS-1 crew chief Corporal Angel Sanchez, age 21.The crew of the HRS-1 had been responding to a report of an aircraft having crashed into the Pacific Ocean, but this story proved to be unfounded.

2nd Lt. Samuel P. Hall was twenty-one years old when he volunteered to be a fighter pilot instructor. He was assigned to the 3035th Pursuit Training Squadron Victorville Army Air Base flying the Bell P-39 Airacobra.  On July 29, 1944 2nd Lt. Hall took off from VAAB at 8:31 a.m. in P-39N 42-18540 to practice air combat tactics. At 9:20 a.m. his aircraft was seen to pull up in a steep turn, stall, and enter a spin from which 2nd Lt. Hall did not recover. His aircraft struck the ground and burned about six miles southwest of the airbase. The army air force accident report cited a possible pilot blackout, possibly induced by pilot fatigue. 2nd Lt. Hall did not have dinner the night before the flight, and no breakfast on the morning of the flight as he had suffered from heat fatigue while playing tennis the day before the flight.

In late September 2016, Doug Humes contacted the Project Remembrance Team to see if it might be possible to locate the final resting place of P-39N 42-18540. Mr. Hume hopes to honor the service, and sacrifice of his uncle, 2nd Lt. Samuel P. Hall by visiting the crash site. The first of two planned missions are scheduled for late fall 2016, and winter 2017.

Project Remembrance

On the evening of March 16, 1957 Lockheed F-94C 50-1059 assigned to the 46th Fighter Interceptor Squadron disappeared without a trace.  The F-94C Starfire was piloted by twenty-seven year old 1st. Lt. Henry Charles Nicolay, and radar intercept officer 1st Lt. Harold A. Lewis. The crew of the Starfire was part of a four ship flight en route from Bunker Hill A.F.B., Indiana to Wurtsmith A.F.B. located in Losco County, Michigan. As the flight approached their destination 1st. Lt. Nicolay’s F-94C dropped out formation, and failed to respond to radio messages from the flight leader. Clouds and darkness are thought to be factors in the loss of the F-94C and its crew, who are presumed to have crashed into Lake Huron. 1st Lt. Nicolay was married, with two young sons aged one and half and six months respectively.

Recently, Steven R. Nicolay the youngest son of Lieutenant Henry C. Nicolay, has made an appeal calling for a renewed search effort in the waters northeast of Oscoda-Wurtsmith Airport. Advances in side scan technologies, and recent updates to USGS data may help in locating the final resting place of Lockheed F-94C 50-1059 and her crew. Volunteers interested in pursuing this important search mission, honoring the service and sacrifice of two air force officers during the Cold War era, should contact Steven Nicolay via pat@aircraftwrecks.com.

During a survey on behalf of the Irvine Ranch Conservancy in May-June 2007 I found the dog tags of USMC Lance Corporal Howard Duane Hall, Jr. The tags were held by the IRC until the fall of 2013 when I was contacted by a representative of the Hall Family. The Irvine Ranch Conservancy promptly returned the dog tags to the family in December, 2013.  (Photos courtesy Stephen A. Hall)

Boy Scout of America Jordan Fourcher became an Eagle Scout on 10/15/15. Jordan, is congratulated by members of the Court of Honor for his outstanding project to honor the service and sacrifice of eighty-four Marines and Air Force servicemen who lost their lives in Orange County on 6/25/65.
