According to that page the only survivor was the bombardier, Lt. Edward F. Walsh, Jr.
Also, according to that page the photo was taken by Leland Conrad, a radio operator on another plane.

Several sources list that this airplane also went by the name “Black Nan” but this is not quite correct. The original Missing Air Crew Report prepared two days after the plane was lost indicated the plane had no name but used the callsign “Black Nan.” This makes sense based on the fact that in the phonetic alphabet of the times, “Nan” stood for “N” and the plane had an “N” painted in black on the fuselage. The provenance of the name “Stevonovitch II” is unknown.

With all respect to the crew members that did not survive,I was hoping to get a copy of this photo. My printer will not do justice to the photo. Please let me know if you can help me. Thank You, Michael Redmon
