The "Rat Packer

Post by peter_northup »

Gentlemen,

I am researching a plane that went down, well shot down, during the final days of WWII in the Phillipines. One of the survivors was named Nicholas Cilberti from the capital region of New York State. I am compiling a display which will be donated to one of our military museums and would like to know if there is any other information that is out there about the crash and subsequent 30 day ordeal to return to the American lines. As I develop the story and research, I will be updating this site with anything that I come accross.

Thank you in advance
