My grandad was a bomber pilot and this is a picture of his plane he mailed to his brother in the merchant marines. Long shot, but I was wondering if anybody would be able to help me with some of the history of the plane with the numbers on the tail. I hadn't had much luck but maybe somebody more versed in WWII aircraft can answer pretty quick. All I really know is that he graduated from Ellington Field flight school 2/16/43 and the Christmas card I have from 1944 says 81st Squadron 12th Bomb Group. Any help is greatly appreciated, trying to piece together the past of all the questions I never thought to ask.
