South Jersey wrecks

[12XU2A3X3]

Given the extremely high volume of flight training in southern New Jersey during the Second World War:
-NAS Wildwood
-NAS Cape May
-NAS Atlantic City
-Millville AAF
...are there any rumored wrecks? I've never heard of a single one. Were they all cleaned up? I visited the Wildwood historical society to check their records but came up more or less empty handed, just that there were around 150 crashes of naval aircraft during the period. I'll check with the Cape May museum when I get visit home.

If anyone would know about South Jersey crash sites, it would be the fine folks at the NAS Wildwood Museum. Heck, even if they don't have any crash site info, you'll enjoy spending a day at the Museum! They have a lot of neat stuff on display and one of the best gift shops around. Their vintage wooden hangar is a real gem, too!

(I'm an ex-Philadelphian, too, by the way!)

Sure seems like Nj wrecked more P-47s then the Germans shot down!

There is a list of military wrecks in Maine.
A very long list with hundreds of wrecked Corsairs, most on Royal Navy delivery flights.
Given the vast number, I assume most were minor and not write offs.
