Tragic end of Bachelor's Baby


Near the Wales Coast Path above Penmaenmawr is a rocky scar where an American bomber, named Bachelor's Baby...

by its crew, crashed in 1944. Five airmen died, along with Booster, their fox terrier mascot. A quarryman returned to the site and buried Booster there, after being asked to do so by one of the injured survivors.
