Crewmen Gave Lives To Spare Villagers

Flying Fort Crew's Sacrifice Revealed L udon. Nov IB.—(UP)—The Iftie English village ot Wargrove still Hand* today -a living monument to eight American airmen who sacrificed their lives to spare it. For although their Flying Fortress was in distress, the crewmen refused to bsil out until they had jettisoned their bomb load In a sate area. The story ot heroism has been pieced together from the reports of observers and villagers: Flying about 15 miles from London, the big fort developed engine trouble and radioed a distress call A crash landing seemed Inevitable, but what of the bombs which would destroy the tiny village the airmen saw below them? Apparently a quiet decision was made Inside the doomed plane. A river flowed along the outskirts of the town, and perhaps the bombs could be dropped there. The airmen carefully pin-pointed their explosives along the river’s bank Just a split seepnd after the last bomb had crashed harmlessly, the Fortress exploded In mid-air. Only one man was blown clear, and he managed to pull his parachute ripcord In time and float to safety. As for his eight comrades—well, there is life and the promise of tomorrow in the little village of Wargrave. —o Average length of an automobile trip to church Is 5.1 tnilro
