Not to intrude on your thread but found this at: World War Photos |
And thought it was a pretty cool detail shot.
And thought it was a pretty cool detail shot.
Here are some pictures of Peggy Lou (4)327698 from when she first appeared on the squadron to the end of the war and finally at Wright Patt just before she crashed (flown into the ground during a storm in the 50's - pilot didn't change to IFR and never saw the ground till he hit it. Both pilots were killed.
Peggy Lou's nose art, with Crew Chief Fred Lawrence (L) and Radio/Gunner Bud Englelman.
Enjoy,

This is a beautiful shot of a modified B-25D-25 from the type D2. The waist and tail gun position have been probably added in a repair depot in the Pacific (probably Hawaii). There is an interesting fact about the exact time this photo has been made. AFAIK the white mid-fuselage band and the mustang head are the 500-th BS. markings from the late '43 period. But the red cowl rings are markings added in the early '44. After July'44 all a/cs in the 345-th BG. received the white Indian head in circle on their tails. On the other hand the "Rough Raiders" (500-th BS.) moved to Nadzab in January 1944 and started flying missions from there in mid February. I do believe this photo is in fact from the first half of 1944.
Cheers!
