Clifford Eugene Phillips Buster

On September 18, 1944, Clifford Eugene Phillips “Buster” was on his way home for leave when his plane crashed into Mt. Deception Alaska.

A rescue party of 44 brave volunteers set out to locate the wreckage and recover those on board the downed C47 aircraft.

The climb was steep and difficult with the slope at 45 degrees in some places.

Basin 2 camp.

When the search and rescue team found the wreckage it was just piles of metal. The rescue team searched for three days to recover the bodies and only found a few personal effects. None of the remains of the nineteen men aboard the downed C-47 were recovered. The rescue mission lasted 48 days.

Part of the wreckage buried in snow.
