"This plane was bombing Chichijima, some sources say it was hit by AA fire, but most say another Avenger was hit and there was a collision. Pilot Bob King told his crew of Grady York and James Dye to bail out, then he made a water landing and was rescued. York and Dye were captured by the Japanese and were both executed." http://tinyurl.com/k2xwete
