I can't find any links to the image that tell the ending of this
story...did he make it or have to ditch?
"This plane was bombing Chichijima, some sources say it was
hit by AA fire, but most say another Avenger was hit and
there was a collision. Pilot Bob King told his crew of
Grady York and James Dye to bail out, then he made a water
landing and was rescued. York and Dye were captured by the
Japanese and were both executed."

King must have felt awful... =(
Does look like some impact damage to the top of the fuselage forward
of the tail, as well.
