fire in his direction putting several holes in his
chute. Clouds and low altitude ended this attack
and Kelley soon found himself on the ground
in a dense wooded area. In the meantime, “My
Baby” had made a 180 degree, descending turn
and, missing the taller buildings of a small town,
crashed onto a farmer’s field. The crash ignited
fuel, oil, and the incendiary bomb load creating
a huge fire that would continue to burn throughout
the night and into the next morning. Kelley could
hear a dog barking nearby and the voices of an
elderly man and woman. Understanding French,
Kelley realized they were looking for survivors
of the bailout. Making himself known to them he
was quickly taken to the local chief of the French
Underground and hidden in a deep hole obvious-
ly prepared as a fortress/hide out along with his
co-pilot, 2Lt Andy Anderson, Navigator, 2Lt Alton
Karoli and Bombardier, 2Lt George Lancaster.
This hide out was 20 feet deep and contained
two rooms partitioned by a large curtain. One
room was the sleeping
area and the second
room contained rifles,
uniforms, and other
supplies used to get
allied personnel back
to their lines. Kelley
and Lancaster suffered
minor injuries from their bail-outs. Engineer,
T/Sgt. Ira Krammes suffered ligament dam-
age and, unable to walk or run, was captured.
Waist Gunner Sgt. Zalma Michell and Ball Turret
Gunner, S/Sgt. Edward Duemmer landed and
were assisted by local residents, eventually
evading back to the Allied lines. Radio Operator,
T/Sgt. Grover Nordman was found by locals, given
a bicycle with which he rode over 50 miles
through German-held territory and across Allied
lines. The body of Tail gunner S/Sgt. Doyle was
found near the wreckage of the aircraft and bur-
ied in the local cemetery by the town mayor and
two young brothers.
Kelley, Anderson, Lancaster, and Karoli, after
nine days hiding with the French Underground,
were picked up by two GI’s who had wandered
near their area in a Jeep. They still had to me-
ander through the French countryside to avoid
pockets of German soldiers in retreat. Arriving in
Paris 12 days after its liberation, Kelley and crew,
aware that surviving crews were to report to the
USAAF headquarters as soon as they arrived, en-
joyed the city’s sights and entertainment for two
days before reporting in. Upon the crew’s return
to Bassingbourn on September 17, a large, base-
wide party was thrown in the 324th BS hangar.
Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower issued orders early
in the war that evaders were not to be returned
to flying status in the ETO. This was to protect the
French Underground from being compromised in
the event a previous evader was captured and
tortured. While there were exceptions to this
mandate, Lt Kelly and his crew were flown back
to the United States to be trained for action in
the Pacific Theatre of Operations. While Bob Kel-
ley did train in Douglas A-26 Medium Bombers to
be flown against Japan, the war ended before he
was ordered back into combat.
1Lt David McCarty: Killed in Action
on a Mission to Ludwigshafen,
Germany, Sept. 8, 1944
Thanks to Bob Kelley, I now knew who “Mac
was. I wrote again to Bowden who responded with
a great deal of information about David McCarty
and his loss over Germany. Bowden also provided
a partial list of McCarty’s mission history in the
322nd BS. This provided further evidence that the
crew photo and flight to Stoney Cross both took
place on August 10, 1944. McCarty and crew first
flew “My Baby” on August 8 and then again on the
9th and then flew “Texas Chubby, The J
-
Ville Jolt-
er,” an olive drab over gray camouflaged B-17G,
on August 11,13, 14, and 15. “Texas Chubby” was
shot down the following day with another crew
on board. Further evidence was provided by 2Lt
Frank Bolen, bombardier assigned to the crew of
“Chow Hound,” another well known, Starcer dec-
orated B-17, in the 322nd BS. On August 7, 1944,
Bolen was relieved of his duties as bombardier
by the squadron’s
lead bombardier because “Chow Hound was to
lead the entire squadron on a mission in support
of the Normandy breakout. „Chow Hound“ and all
of her crew were lost on that mission. With no
time to reflect on the loss of his crew, Bolen was
immediately assigned to the McCarty crew and
is shown in the official 91st BG photo that now
appears to have been taken on the morning of
August 10, the same day McCarty flew “My Baby”
to Stoney Cross.
McCarty and crew’s next mission was on Sep-
tember 8 in an NMF B-17G, serial no. 43-38348
named “Roxy’s Special.” On that day, this aircraft
was listed “Missing in Action” (MIA) on only its
fifth mission and McCarty listed as “Killed in Ac-
tion” (KIA) over the same target that saw the loss
The four evaders return
to Bassingbourn 12 days
after being shot down in “My
Baby.” L

R: LT Andrew “Andy”
Anderson, Co-Pilot; Lt George
Lancaster Jr., Bombardier;
Lt Alton Karoli, Navigator; and
Lt Ernest Robert “Bob” Kelley,
Pilot. Anderson, who was
the pilot of “Madame Shoo
Shoo,” was loaned to the
inexperienced Kelley crew for
the mission on September 5,
1944. [Kelley]
