B-24 Liberator crashes in southern Italy

When this 15th Air Force Consolidated B-24 Liberator bomber crashed at a field in southern Italy, ground crew men rushed up, pulled the plane's crew to safety. No one was killed. Then, when the plane's gas tanks, containing 100 octane gasoline exploded, emergency crews could do nothing to save the plane, but worked only to prevent the spread of the fire.
