The wingtip of 42-23589, along with both engines and other parts, form a memorial to the 20 US and Australian servicemen killed when the aircraft broke up in a storm on November 16, 1943. The monument was dedicated in 2004 at a site that could be accessed by the public about 6km from where the wreckage fell that night
