B-17G 44-6814 CHOO-Z-SUZY of the 306th Bomb Group, 368th BS. This B17 survived the war and returned back to the US. Only to be scrapped.
Is that a still from Goebbel's seminal work: "Nazi Beach party Bingo" or "Young Arrayans in Love"?
I have always found this image disturbing. The gunner, still in his seat, appears to have been thrown out and is laying between the tail and starboard wing. Does anyone know the story behind this picture? Did he survive?

Curious installation of 8 Japanese Ho-103 (Type 1) 12.7 mm MGs. I imagine it was quite loud.
Wow! Talk about a meat chopper! Yikes!
