It was common for the US to badge any captured A/C ASAP and like wise for the IJA, there is a couple of pics of 3 B-17 that were captured at Clark AB in the PI. The photo show and early model B-17 w/the original funky vertical stabilizer and the other two are the later version, all three have the Rising Sun badge visible. I will try to find the copy I have of those A/C. Here is the link for the article on the US B-17s captured by the Japanese. Captured B-17
