WHAT REALLY HAPPENED IN THE BERMUDA TRIANGLE?
DIANE JOHNSTON, CARDIFF
The patch of sea between Florida, Puerto Rico and Bermuda gained legendary status in the mid-20th century when articles linked it to mysterious disappearances of boats and aircraft. One of the most famous incidents occurred in 1945 when Flight 19, a group of five US Navy bombers on a training mission, vanished in the area. Over the decades that followed, shipwrecks and crashed planes were frequently attributed to the Triangle’s destructive forces.
