Marooned soldier survived 120-mile walk in the subarctic after 1943 plane crash

Editor’s note: 1-52 Aviation Regiment, 16 Combat Aviation Brigade, participated in a joint remains recovery mission to the Charley River B-24 crash site during the summer of 2006, which resulted in the discovery and positive identification of 2nd Lt. Harold Hoskin at the crash site. Hoskin was buried in Arlington Cemetery in 2007. Leon Crane passed away in 2002, and is survived by his six children. He was 83 years old.
