History When the formation reached San CristobaI, they were forced down to 1,000' due to low scattered clouds. About twenty miles off the tip of Guadalcanal the formation ran into a solid front, and made a 180 degree turn and climbed. This bomber disappeared into a cloud along with the Airacobras. Radio conversation was heard between the Airacobras and the B-25, but it failed to arrive and was never seen again. Search Memorials Contribute
