The Director of the Naval History and Heritage Command on Flight 19 and the PBM-5 Mariner (Training 49) lost searching for it: the tanker SS Gaines Mills reported flames at 19:50 and USS Solomons lost the PBM on radar at the same position; the board's finding about the flight leader and its later correction after his mother's appeal to "cause unknown".
What it's used for here
