By the time Osborne and crew force-landed on Majuro Atoll in
late Dec 43, Kline had been replaced as Asst Engineer by Pvt Williston F.
Rumsey. Lundy was piloting his own aircraft and was replaced as Co-Pilot by 1st
Lt. Raymond D. Cloyer. So, with the exception of Lundy and Kline, the Osborne
flight crew shown here were KIA or POW.
