My first attempt at a model airplane was a Devastator, I still remember wondering if it was supposed to look crooked, . Supposedly, none survived the war, I wonder what happened to the two that the company supposedly kept for testing? Was one the floatplane conversion and were the floats removed after the trials?
 

Great story with the bear and the soldiers who raised him. Go to the soldierbear.com for info about Wojtek and the soldiers he served with.

An extremely high price was paid!
B-29 "Thunderbird" of the 6th Bomb Squadron, 29th Bomb Group going down after being hit by flak while bombing an aircraft factory near Tokyo on August 8, 1945. All but two of the crew were lost in the crash. One was captured, tortured and executed and the other was captured, but survived.

 
Should we all ask them to return to the old name?
