[Photograph 2012.201.OVZ001.0471]
Photograph used for a story in the Daily Oklahoman newspaper. Caption: "An air force B-57 carrying a two-man crew crashed and exploded Sunday morning in a wooded field in Midwest City, killing both men. There were no other casulties as the pilot, in an apperant heroic decision that cost him his life, guided the twin-engine craft away from nearby houses and into the field northeast of Reno and Douglas Blvd. The site where the crash occured is surrounded by heavily-populated residential areas, a shopping center and school. An investigator said the pilot did "a fantastic job" steering the craft into one of only two open areas in the neighborhood, midway between two houses seperated by the 500-yard-wide field. Witnesses said the light jet bomber, loaded with fuel, was headed for a house occupied by Mr. and Mrs. B. W. Guest, 212 N Douglas, when the pilot "slipped it over" into the field."
