Profile: John Way

LT John R. Way was "Miss Deal"’s only pilot.

Way was from Englewood, New Jersey and attended mass at St. Cecilia's along with Vince Lombardi.  At St. John’s he initially studied Divinity, and graduated with a degree in accounting.  He excelled in music and was employed by Glenn Miller working alongside the band leader’s bookkeeper.





 John Way did not escape the "Miss Deal"  before she crashed and exploded on June 25, 1943. We believe he and Charlie are still with the plane in the Dollart.
