520    On November 18, 1944, the end of the war in Europe finally
       in sight, American co-pilot Lieutenant Lee Lamar struggled
       alongside pilot Randall Darden to keep Bottoms Up, their B
       -24J Liberator, in the air. Over Pula in what is now 
       Croatia, they were once more hit by German fire. Lamar all
       but surrendered to death before fortuitously bailing out 
       and being captured. in 2006 Lamar received an email from 
       Croatian archaeologist Luka Bekic who had discovered the 
       wreckage of Bottoms Up.
