Seeking details of death of Air Transport Command Flight Officer, WWII

faithellenmoore Jun 22, 2019 6:55 PM

I am searching for the details of an aircraft crash, which killed a flight officer in the air transport command. I have some information from a newspaper article published in 1945. I know the date of death and the place. I would like to know if I can get more information, i.e. type of aircraft and if it crashed on takeoff, other people in aircraft, etc.
