Long Lost WWII P-38 Discovered Under 300 Feet of Ice in Greenland

Thank you for sharing my friend CW5 Jack Cardwell that a Lockheed P-38 Lightning fighter aircraft which had been abandoned after an emergency landing on Greenland has been located under between 250 and 300 feet of ice.

Background from the web article
"On July 15, 1942, six P-38 Lightning fighter aircraft and two B-17 Flying Fortress bombers encountered a blizzard while supporting the Allied war effort in the British Isles. The aircraft were forced to conduct an emergency landing on the glaciers of Greenland, and though all the crew members were rescued nine days later, the aircraft were left behind."
