When I purchase that B-17E that's in Texas, I'll have the Planes Of Fame Museum paint it up like that when I donate it to them.

I've never noticed the "U.S. Army" under the wings or two tone upper camo on British based B-17s before. Off to the books...................

I've never noticed the "U.S. Army" under the wings or two tone upper camo on British based B-17s before.

I'd imagine it wouldn't have lasted long, although that photo is dated 16 September and the B-17s had already been in Britain since July. A later delivery, perhaps? I suspect they were still in their pre-war colour (color?) schemes. From a book I have, the first B-17 units arrived in Britain in July 1942, the 97th Bombardment Group equipped with B-17Es, with the first operation over France on 17 August.
