| BB , MN | I was stationed at March AFB in 1962 and, sadly, recall seeing the cloud from the crash of that B-47, which, according to records was a B-47E. At the time, I was struck by the fact that a loved one might be seeing that very same, dark cloud of smoke. It was very moving. 12/28/2011 @ 12:32 [ref: 51654] |

| Tom Cameron, Texas, TX | While growing up in Abilene, Kansas in the late 1960s we used to go to the old Shilling AFB in Salina, Kansas. They had a B47 on display there at the air field. does anyone know what happened to that plane? 09/29/2011 @ 09:21 [ref: 49318] |
| Ed McCoomb North Port, FL | My older brother Leo was a navigator on a
B-47 that crashed around Matagorda, Texas on April 11, 1962. The co-pilot was the only survivor. I have tried on a number of occasions to find out more about the crash using the internet, but have not been able to obtain any information. He was stationed at Little Rock AFB at the time. I feel bad about the fact that he lost his life while serving his country, but no information about him or the crash of his plane can be found. It's like he never existed. 04/25/2011 @ 09:12 [ref: 37559] |
| Chris Braden Washington, UT | We lived in a home near the corner of Alessandro
Avenue and Old US-395 (now I-15) in what was then Edgemont (now incorporated into Moreno Valley) near the old "Alamo Market" supermarket (now torn down) when a B-47 crashed at March Air Force Base (now March Air Reserve Base), near the end of the runway. If I had been home at the time, we would have been no more than 200-300 yards from the crash site. However, I was at school that day as I was 13 years old and attending Alessandro Jr. High School in nearby Sunnymead (now also incorporated as part of Moreno Valley). I did hear the crash and see the huge plume of black smoke from the wreck from a distance of some 4-5 miles to the northeast of where the B-47 went down. My father, MSgt Arnold Braden, knew Major Garrett who was killed in the accident. It was a traumatic event for me. 11/29/2010 @ 20:36 [ref: 33691] |

| Bob Rockwell Abilene, KS | For Murray Johnson:
Yes its true that if the gun system is left on the radar will pick you up and the guns will follow. This type system eliminated the need for an actual tailgunner. Bob R. 02/16/2010 @ 08:14 [ref: 25731] |
