ROSE OF YORK. 1944-07-06 In honour and presence of Her Royal Highness The Princess Elizabeth, the Boeing B-17G-55-BO Flying Fortress #42-102547, is christened 'Rose of York' (*). The ceremony is held at USAAF Station 111, RAF Thurleigh. (*) Previously named 'Princess Elizabeth', then 'The Princess', before becoming 'Rose of York' during this baptism. These precautions are taken in order to avoid setbacks to the bomber who would certainly not have been spared by the German fighters who would have glorified the fact of shooting him down... That said, this B-17 was damaged -Two engines lost- during a mission over Berlin on February 3, 1945. Last seen over the North Sea while trying to return.

The Germans opened up with flak hitting us. I was sitting at the side of Johnny (Goddard) in the second pilot’s seat, when there was a crash, the intercom went dead and fire broke out around the wireless operator. There was a second bang right after the first and the whole front cabin filled with smoke and fire. Johnny shouted for full power and then shouted “jump Mac”. I got down and went back to the navigator’s cabin which was full of smoke, and dragged my chute out, then Neville’s, and then shouted into the smoke that we had to get out. A voice shouted OK. I turned back to the front escape hatch with two figures behind me, which might have been Neville and Howard. When I reached the hatch, it was open and Alan De Beer was just jumping. I went straight out over his heels. After my chute opened I could see the plane with all of the fuselage on fire flying on, until it disappeared into cloud. I looked below and saw another chute, Alan De Beer. After coming down some distance, I heard a crash which I assumed was the plane hitting the ground, but could not see any more chutes | Captured | Liberated when Fort Tourneville le Havre surrendered on 12 September 1944.
