A/C # 43-37591 MACR #5383, Microfiche # 1957.

Eyewitness Report:
Observer is unknown.. A/C #591 (Peterson) was flying right wing on A/C #095 (Wilson) which was hit by a ground rocket and collided with #591 (Peterson). The nose section of #095 (Wilson) was sheared off, but it appeared to remain under control and peeled out of the formation. Five chutes were seen from #095 (Wilson) as they attempted to turn back toward the channel. #591 (Peterson) was last sighted about three miles from Boulogne at 1015 hours.
