Timeline
On 25 July 1944, Fitch took a flight from Tarawa, his final intended destination being Australia. He was flying with Consairways, a war airline that had been established by Donald Beatty and was under contract to Air Transport Command. The plane crashed into a 750 ft hilltop on Florida Island on approach to Carney Field, whilst travelling from Tarawa to Guadalcanal, en route to Australia. It has been written that Fitch was carrying a case that 'contained war plans detailing the upcoming major offensive in the Pacific, formulated by President Franklin Roosevelt and Pacific Command and was being delivered to General MacArthur'.
During 1938 and 1939, Fitch was in the Directorate of Signals at the Air Ministry. At the outbreak of World War II, he initially served on signal duties in France and was made Group captain on 1 June 1942, and Air commodore in September 1943. Later that year, Fitch was made Deputy Director of Intelligence at the Air Ministry and Commanding Air Officer of Tarawa.
In 1931 Fitch married Florence (née Gribble) in Bedford, England. She survived him. He was a useful rugby player and played for Bedford, making 93 appearances between 1921 and 1928.
Fitch joined the Royal Air Force in 1926 as a pilot officer on a short service commission. After flight training he served with Army co-operation squadrons at home and in India until 1929. In 1930 he was promoted to flying officer after completing a signals course and thereafter served for five years in the Middle East. In 1937 he passed the RAF staff College course in Andover and was promoted to Squadron leader.
Air commodore Isaac John Fitch (3 October 1903 – 25 July 1944) was a senior officer in the Royal Air Force, Deputy Director of Intelligence at the Air Ministry and Commanding Air Officer of Tarawa during World War II. His relatively brief career was cut short when, en route to Australia, the plane carrying him crashed into a hilltop on Florida Island killing everyone on board.
Isaac John Fitch was born in Bedford on 3 October 1903. He was the third son of Frank Fitch, a Master Baker and Confectioner, and Mary Redfern Fitch, both of Bedford. He was educated at Bedford Modern School.
