At Boston Bombing, Strangers Ran Toward Chaos, Not Away From It

On April 15, 2013, two bombs went off near the finish line of the
Boston Marathon, killing three spectators and wounding more
than 260 other people in attendance.

Four days later, after an intense manhunt that shut down the
Boston area, police captured one of the bombing suspects,
19-year-old Dzhokhar Tsarnaev; his older brother and fellow
suspect, 26-year-old Tamerlan Tsarnaev, died following a
shootout with law enforcement earlier that same day.

According to military officials this week, the remains of a World
War II airman were identified 80 years after his plane was shot
down during a bombing mission in Germany.

In the spring of 1944, U.S. Army Air Force Tech. Sgt. Sanford G.
Roy, of Chattanooga, Tennessee, was assigned to the 732nd Bombardment Squadron in the European Theater. 

A news release from the Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency 
said Roy and several other airmen were aboard the B-24H
Liberator "Little Joe" on a bombing mission to Brunswick,
Germany on April 8.

The plane was shot down by German forces and other airmen
flying near the aircraft did not report seeing any crew members
exiting "Little Joe" before it crashed. His name was engraved
on the Walls of the Missing at the Netherlands American
Cemetery.
