TSGT Edward Franklin Spangler

According to the 444th's website, "In the early morning of 1 June 1945, [Eddie Spangler's B-29, dubbed Big Poison Second Dose] climbed through a heavy overcast on the way to the Japanese mainland. Near the assembly point, off the coast of Japan,[near Osaka} the top of the overcast had been breached and the plane was seen flying in the clear preparing to join their formation leader – Suddenly, another plane came up out of the clouds beneath them and crashed into a wing. Both planes disappeared into the clouds below. Air-Sea Rescue facilities were contacted and a search of the area was made, to no avail."
