22:11Now PlayingAt 1:06 am on March 23rd. 1951, a C-124 Globemaster II of the United States Air Force, bound from Maine to the United Kingdom, sent a routine message to oceanic control in Ireland, providing a revised estimated time of arrival. The plane, with 53 people aboard, never reached its destination. The fate of the plane and men has become one of the enduring mysteries of the United States Air Force.
