U.S. Army Air Force Staff Sgt. Ralph H. Bode was killed when his plane was shot down over enemy territory in September 1944.
A 20-year-old who was killed during World War II has been accounted for, military officials announced on Thursday. U.S. Army Air Force Staff Sgt. Ralph H. Bode was assigned to a bombardment squadron in the European Theater in late 1944, the Department POW/MIA Accounting Agency said in a news release, and flew with the Hansen Crew. Bode was a tail gunner on a B-24H aircraft during a mission over Kassel, Germany .
In September 1951, the American Graves Registration Command, which searched for and recovered the remains of American personnel in that region, were told by local residents about several bombers that had crashed outside of Richelsdorf, Germany. Investigators were able to locate remains of multiple crashed planes based on the shared information, 'various bits of scattered clothing,' and remains of two servicemembers. Those remains were believed to have come from Bode's aircraft.
