103531 Flight Officer Frank White Bartlett jr. U.S. Army Air Force 847th Bomber Squardon 489th Bomber Group Heavy from:Pen Yan, New York (d.29 May 1944) I am inquiring for information, My Uncle, Frank White Bartlett, was in England, at Halesworth Air Base in April 1944 with the 847th. Bomber Squardon. He was a Flight Officer. He was killed in a plane crash prior to D-Day. The story I have heard was they were having an aircraft fly by for some VIP's prior to D-Day when the wing tips touched and at least 4 planes in formation crashed. I have not been able to find any details of this and hoping someone might point me in the right direction or have been there. I never knew him and I was in the Air Force in Veit Nam, I want to take my Mother to England to see her brother's markers at Cambridge Cemetery. She is 80 years old and in very good shape.
