On that mission, the 445th sent out 35 planes on a milk run only to have 4 return to base. While serving with the 445th, they were among the few who had survived the Kassel mission. Their transfer order carried an extra bombardier, perhaps as a pilotage navigator, Lt Williams from the Ogden Crew 606.Īfter a short time with the 44th, they were reassigned to the 445th BG where they completed their tour. On 10 Jun 44, the Ubelhoer Crew was transferred to the 44th BG for lead crew training on Pathfinders. Amazingly the whole crew was able to walk away from it. They ran out of gas just as they got across the channel and crashlanded it near Wittering, Sussex. The additional drag caused the ship to burn even more fuel. If that’s not bad enough, the Uebelhoer Crew lost an engine on the return trip. As a result all of the planes were coming back low on fuel. Too much time was wasted in trying to find it before running off to the secondary target. First, the Group couldn’t identify their primary target due to bad intelligence. The Crew’s first mission was perhaps the roughest they had with the 492nd. It’s always possible that the bombardier could have missed some of the earlier pathfinder missions. We can’t be positive of all of the personnel changes on some of their missions. Since our finding the name, the 389th website has taken the name and plane off their list.īy our count, Capt Uebelhoer flew as the aircraft commander for Crew 904 for a total of 6 missions and an aborted one. We elected to post the name LITTLE RED here, in hopes that someone may be able to provide us with more information. We haven’t heard or read anything that supports this plane ever having a nickname, but we couldn’t imagine a salvage officer naming wrecks. We were assuming that the salvaged plane went to their airfield. While surfing the net for pieces of history, we found this Crew’s original plane listed with the 389th BG with the name, LITTLE RED. Their ground crew chief S/Sgt Bliss flew with them, thus bumping Cpl Cabral onto the Queen Elizabeth. In April 1944, they flew their assigned aircraft to North Pickenham, England, via the southern route. They were assigned to the 859th BS, designated as Crew 904.Ĭapt Wilbur Uebelhoer signed out for a B-24J 44-40069.
They transferred in as crew 1660 from the CCTS (Combat Crew Training School) in Biggs, Texas, on 3 Mar 44. Why her husband isn't seeing her graphic film: "He's chosen not to see the film, and he really doesn't intend to.The Uebelhoer Crew was one of the original crews for the 492nd BG that trained in Alamogordo, New Mexico. I hope Easton always feels comfortable in her body." I felt I had overcome whatever body issues I had. How her latest flick changed her life: "After the film, I definitely felt empowered by not letting my fears and insecurities get in the way. I hope women who see this will be happy to see somebody who they relate to, as opposed to somebody who looks like she's been manufactured." Would she ever get plastic surgery? "I haven't had any plastic surgery.
it really wasn't a part of the job description to shake off the uniform and let it all hang out." Why she choose to be in the graphic movie: " I've played a lot of lawyers, cops and FBI agents.

She's used to playing a cop, but she sheds the uniform (and the rest of her clothes) in the movie and gets pretty graphic in some scenes, too. Law & Order star Elisabeth Rohm is baring all for the July issue of Life & Style magazine and talking about taking a role in the movie The Kreutzer Sonata, which is unlike any other role she's had before.
