Well, she's a slim redhead with and tattoos......oh...you meant rescribe her! Naa, she's alright. I remember the lines being more crude than they are, but was wrong, memory has been probably been diluted over the years....
 
Well, as already mentioned in the Recent Purchases thread I've bought this one for the MTO/North Africa GB, which means that I'll wrestle three twins in that GB.....I need to seek help!

Link to Mark Styling's artwork....Aircraft illustration

She'll become the B-26C-20-MO, B/N 41-35007 or as she was numbered in the 17th BG/34th BS, 13.....

Great news there Jan, I have a few books with details on the inside of the B-25 if you need them.

You found one in a 13 also???? I will do some more digging but the B-26 will be alot harder to find info on though I do have some ideas and books on the B-26. I think Im up through October on mission reports for Peggy Lou but still at it.
 
No, not another "13" I'm afraid. Will be a bird from 603 Squadron "City of Edinburgh"and in anti-shipping duties in the Med. Very much appreciated Paul!

The three "sisters"....

Why not? Greece is a part of the Med, isn't it? I mean she has a coastline towards the Mediterranean Sea.... So personally I think that it should go.

Thanks for the info Paul!

Edit:

World War II Balkans Campaign
Battle of the Mediterranean
Gibraltar in World War II
Italian Campaign
North African Campaign
Operation Achse
Adriatic Campaign of World War II
Balkans Campaign
Cretan resistance
Fortress Crete
Dodecanese Campaign
Operation Felix

Axis occupation of Greece during World War II
Operation Herkules
June 1942 Crete airfield raids
Battle of Kos
Battle of Leros

Operation Lustre
Siege of Malta
Operation Mincemeat
Operation Accolade
Syria-Lebanon Campaign

Just some that has to do with MTO. There's more, but....

Thanks Jan and Igor, saved me repeating the answers! I'll be posting the GB Guidelines within the next wek, possibly even with a map, in case anyone doesn't know where the Med is!! Just got to do a bit of checking and confering first guys.
