Museum Absolutely Refused To House This World War 2 Uniform After Searching Through The Pockets

Remains of Marines In A Bomber Wreck

The remains of Staff Sgt. Thomas L. Meek of Lisbon La. and Capt. Henry S. White of Kansas City, Mo. had finally been discovered after 70 years following the time when the dive bomber fell in the South Pacific. In July 1943, White and Meek took off from the Turtle Bay Airfield on Espiritu Santo Island in New Hebrides and were never heard from again. The plan was only found in 2010 and the remains of White and Meek were discovered.
