Four Liberator crew survive 33 days adrift in Pacific
Four U S Army Air Forces crewmen from Liberator aircraft bailed out over the Philippines after a mission. They drifted 34 days and 400 miles in open sea on life rafts and improvised catches of fish and birds to survive. The group consisted of Second Lt John W Emig and Sgts John M Days, William A Gillisse, and Adolph L Desmarsis. They were aboard Water No 1 when hit by enemy anti aircraft fire. After two were rescued, the remaining quartet landed on a small island and were celebrated by natives before final rescue 15 days later. They reported sighting five Japanese submarines and many planes but kept up hope throughout.
