Lt. Gen. Arthur Lichte, Air Force Assistant Vice Chief of Staff, and Congressman Brian Bilbray (R-Ca) pay their respects as they present a wreath at the World War II Memorial June 14. The event commemorated the 64th anniversary of the Bakers Creek air crash in Australia in which 40 American service members lost their lives. At the time, the crash represented the greatest loss of life during the war from an aircraft disaster and remains Australia's most traumatic plane crash to date. A marker honoring those who died currently resides at the Australian Embassy, but the Bakers Creek Memorial Association hopes to have it moved permanently to Arlington National Cemetery.
