The B-24 liberator Lady Be Good was lost after failing to return to her base after attacking Naples it was April 1943. An exhaustive search did not find her or her crew. 16 years later an oil exploration team found the aircraft preserved by the dry desert environment on a plateau in a southeastern Libyan desert. An investigation was started to find her 9 crew men. They were found together with pieces of their equipment around them. Lady Be Good was lost on a flight in WWII. She remained alone with her crew in the cruel confines of a merciless desert. Finally, she was found, sitting in the dry sand. This story and the rest of her saga has intrigued me for years since I saw some of her remains at the National Museum for the USAF. It touched me in her heroism and her loneliness, waiting for her crew that never came back.
