Fred Rochlin Tells Graphic Story Of Bombing Rai'
Over Adriatic On Which Of His B-2
Crew Drowned

city, who arrived home Nov. 23rd
ON furlough after completing his
5Oth mission as an army bomber
navigator.
1t. Rochlin went overseas in May
of this year and on Sept. Goth left
Italy to bomb Czechoslovakia. On
that mission, his 47th, and over the
target selected for Rochlin and the
other nine members of his crew,
German anti-aircraft put out two
engines of the B-24, peppered the
ship a good deal, and damaged the
3rd engine.
Giving a graphic account of the
trip from the time the ship was
damaged, and an expedition on
which Rochlin almost lost his life,
he said:
1--WE started flying back to italy
and flew as far as we could, then
the 3rd engine went out and we only
had one engine left which is not
enough to keep a B-24 in the air,
SO we bailed out from an altitude of
about 1000 feet and unfortunately
we're over the Adriatic Sea. We sent
out an SOS but didn't know anyone
heard it.
eve lit in the sea, there was a
storm at the time, the waves were
pretty high, and it was raining. We
had on our Mae Vests Qife pre-
servers). Some distance away our
ship (the B-24) crashed into the
sea.
Boats Show Up
LAS soon as we lit in the sea we
started swimming around. Eight
of the crew drowned, myself and
pilot survived. After about five
hours two boats showed up, one a
British and the other Greek.
The pilot was picked up by the
Greek ship and I by the British.
The pilot was taken to a port in
north Italy and myself to an is
land just off YugOslavia.
"a couple of the boys didn't get
their chutes off. l got mine off
while in the air.
''After we had been in the water
for three hours Bit circled over
and finally spotted us and the Bit
notified the boats which picked us
up
Before the boats came I had fig
ured I could swim the 30 miles to
shore if I could stay alive. I had
learned to swim at pools in Nogales,
but it was all I could do to keep
the salt water out of my mouth. I
was about as lonely as anyone could
be. 1 figured I could stay alive two
more hours. 1t was just getting
dark when the ship dragged me up"
Three More Missions
Following his rescue, Rochlin
made three more missions over Eu-
rope During the SO trips his B-24
dropped bombs on the Ploesti oil
fields of Rumania, Budapest, Bu-
charest, Athens, Belgrade, Vienna,
Munich, and other Balkan capitals,

Mrs. Dewey and Mrs. Bricker were
both gracious and friendly, answered
frankly many queries and made
their questioners generally feel at
home.
The only approach to discussion
of public issue came when a girl
reporter asked Mrs. Bficker how
she felt about compulsory military
training as q permanent policy in

questions.
