Crash of a B-17 in sea near Cairns 16 August 1942

I have just carried out an update on my web page on the above crash.

Using snippets of information already available, I have done some detective work on the American Battle Monuments Commission (ABMC) web site, the Townsville US Cemetery records that I have and the Ipswich Cemetery records that I have, to determine who may have been on board this B-17 when it crashed killing all its occupants.
