Description
English: Local children listen to the speeches from a rock at the Italian commemoration ceremony for the B-17 of the Aguille des Glaciers, Sept. 3, Courmayeur, Italy. Lt. Col. Rebecca Sonkiss, commander, 15 Airlift Squadron and 12 others from Joint Base Charleston participated in two commemoration ceremonies for the crew of B-17 #43-39338 in Courmayeur, Italy, and Bourg Saint Maurice, Sept. 3-4. The B-17 crew was from the 15th Troop Carrier Squadron which is now the 15th AS. Dignitaries and family members of the crew were in attendance. The entire eight man crew was lost after their aircraft went down on Aiguille des Glaciers, one of the rugged peaks in the French Alps. It is near Mont Blanc, the highest point in Europe and close to the French-Italian border. They were assigned to the European Air Transport Command, 61st Troop Carrier Group, 15th Troop carrier Squadron during World War II.
