Part II of Jean Pierre's Research and Findings regarding the crash of Lt. Thomas Pearce's (Clarksburg Ohio) B-24 Liberator crash during World War II


LT. THOMAS PEARCE: Clarksburg, Ohio WWII
KILLED IN ACTION: MAY 11, 1944
As I discussed yesterday, Jean Pierre of Chartres, France shared many items of interest with me regarding the May 11, 1944 crash of Captain Edward Brodsky's B-24, including Bombardier, Lt. Thomas Pearce from Clarksburg, Ohio onboard. I thought I would provide a few more pictures of interest, including a before and after photo of the B-24, colorfully named "Blow Job," and photos of Pearce (KIA), the pilot Brodsky (MIA-POW), and Weiss, the Navigator (KIA).


















































Pilot: Captain Edward Brodsky



























Navigator: Lt. Lester Weiss
