Edward Patrick Cummings from Jersey City, New Jersey, Hudson county.
Service era: Korea
Date of death: Wednesday, May 26, 1954
Death details: On July 11, 1952, an AD-3Q Skyraider (bureau number 122863) with a crew of two departed the USS Bon Homme Richard (CV-31) on a strike mission against enemy targets in Pyongyang. While diving at its target, the Skyraider was hit by anti-aircraft fire and crashed near Pyongyang. Witnesses did not see any parachutes leave the aircraft before it crashed, and the fate of the two crew members is unknown. They were not reported to be prisoners of war, and their remains have not been recovered. Lieutenant Edward Patrick Cummings, who joined the U.S. Navy from New Jersey, served with Detachment 41, Composite Squadron 33, embarked aboard the Bon Homme Richard. He was the pilot of this Skyraider when it crashed and he remains unaccounted-for. Today, Lieutenant Cummings is memorialized on the Courts of the Missing at the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific.
