"On Jan. 9, 1945, "Waddy's Wagon" was among 72 B-29s sent to bomb the Nakajima Aircraft Engine Factory near Tokyo. Attacked upon reaching their objective, the aircraft to the immediate right of Young's in the 8-ship formation was rammed by a kamikaze fighter.
Young released his bombs on target and radioed for the group to slow, but realized the task would be impossible and have all survive, so he turned back to shepherd the stricken plane and signal where it ditched, the All-American crew throwing a block for their teammates.
"Waddy's Wagon" and its 10-member crew were last sighted 10 miles east of Choshi Point off mainland Japan at 27,000 feet and descending into clouds while providing protection to B-29 Crew A-46. A search plane flown the next day, and those that combed the area for the next two weeks, never found a trace of either aircraft."
