Title: British Pathe Clip: "A Tragedy of the Pacific"
Post by: Al Leonard on March 29, 2013, 10:22:26 PM

Has anybody seen this clip (http://www.britishpathe.com/video/a-tragedy-of-the-pacific/query/earhart) before? Nice shots of Amelia, Fred, the Electra, The USS Colorado and its search planes, and the Lexington. Sort of brings it all to life.

The narration says something about a British freighter being involved int he search. Is this an error? I remember that a British warship listened for radio calls but don't think I've read anything at Tighar about a British freighter.
