Looking for the AAF serial number of a B-25 that went missing over the Hump on 23 Jan 1943.
The airplane was later found at 26 degrees 58 min / 95 degrees 30 min.
Need full names and rank of crew.
Any help appreciated.

The airplane is a B-25C 41-12960 and it went down on 24 Jan 1944.
This is the correct serial and date.
The subject heading in the book "The Aluminum Trail" is in error.
