On the trip to Japan, we had an overnight stopover at Guam.During the night I went back to our plane to get some thing that Ihad left behind. A Marine Guard stopped me and said that no onewas allowed on the plane.

While I was talking to the Guard there was a B29 warming up onthe strip. I asked the Guard was he going on a mission, and hetold me, no, but that one the B29's had gone into the sea off theend of the strip. The pilot of the plane had a doll, that he tookwith him all the time. When the plane went into the sea, theyretrieved the doll and the carpenter had made a box for it. TheB29 was taking it back to Omaha, Nebraska in the United Statesto give it to the pilot's family.
