House Honors Flight 19

From the SciFi Wire:
The House of Representatives on Nov. 17 passed a resolution honoring the 14 airmen of Flight 19—the so-called Lost Patrol—who disappeared over the Bermuda Triangle after taking off from Naval Air Station Fort Lauderdale on Dec. 5, 1945, during a routine training mission, as well as the 13 men aboard a rescue plane that also disappeared.

Rep. Clay Shaw's (R-Fla.) announcement that the House had passed his resolution came at a news conference and screening sponsored by the SCI FI Channel of its upcoming documentary The Bermuda Triangle: Startling New Secrets for members of Congress, congressional staff and the media. The documentary, hosted by NBC/MSNBC news anchor Lester Holt, looks at the disappearance of Flight 19 and the phenomenon of the Bermuda Triangle. SCI FI executives Bonnie Hammer and Dave Howe were also in attendance, as were Holt and family members of the lost airmen.
