This aviation tragedy was big news in 1943. A small plane went down in a remote area of Alaska and several people on board survived in the wilderness for a month before being rescued. A brief account can be found here, and a very detailed and gripping version of the story can be found on the TIGHAR website, in pdf format, here. The rescuers apparently did not have a radio, so they spelled out messages in the snow, like "Send Blimp" (helicopters were only just coming into production in 1943). A companion photo can be found here.
