Investigators
Seek Cause of
Tanker Crash
Savanah, Ga. - 1TD - Air
Force investigators sought to
day to determine what caused
a loaded KC97 Stratotanker
to crash in a residential area
Wednesday, killing all 11
crewmen.
The big craft, attached to
the 308th Air Refueling
Squadron at Hunter Air Force
Base here, slammed into the
only parking lot at a residen
tial subdivision about 10 miles
southeast of here. It had just
taken off on a routine training
mission.
It was believed that one or
more of the plane's four en
gines failed.
The plane was burning be
fore it hit, witnesses said, and
it blew up in several thunder
ous explosions as it ground
across the lot and into two
empty houses. C. E. Williams,
who was working in his gar
den near the scene, was
burned and at last report was
in fair condition at a hos
pital. One Resident Burned
Another resident, Charles
Wilson, was burned while try
ing to put out the fire which
had spread to his yard. His
condition also was reported
as fair.
One witness, Lawrence
Johnson, said that "fire was
coming out (of the plane) be
fore it hit."
An unidentified telephone
lineman said the plane barely
missed the pole on which he
was working, and that an ob
ject that fell from the plane
almost hit him.
Wreckage was scattered
over about five blocks, and
one of the homes it struck
was demolished.
Identify Dead
Lt. George Muelich, infor
mation officer at Hunter, said
the Stratotankers normally
carry a crew of six, but that
five observers were aboard on
this flight
The dead men were identi
fied as Lt. Harold G. Laffen,
26, aircraft commander, of
New York City; Lt. Freddie
Levine, 25, navigator, Charles
ton, S. C; M. Sgt. Warren E.
