Mr Matthews was an observer on board an army B-24D that crashed on Amchitka Island on Feb 25, 1943 after a bombing mission against Japanese held Kiska Island. He survived the crash and was returned to his ship via navy PBY. Matthews may have been a midshipman at USNA as part of the 90 day program for recent college graduates.
Would like to know his full name and the name of the liberty ship he was assigned to.
Thanks!
Pete
